The administrator determines which documents (or parts of documents) you can access. The Report List displays information about the reports to which you have access. You can customize the Report List using date and report id filters with changing mode, recipient, or mail code to limit the display to those documents that interest you.
Note: The administrator must know about the repositories that are in use. They must be able to set up, or request someone to set up, the infrastructure (CA DRAS for the mainframe) for web access.
Cross-report Indexes, Indexes, and Logical Views allow viewing of sections of one or multiple CA View documents. You can use indexes and logical views to view sections of one or multiple CA Bundl documents.
You can view text reports and reports in the following formats (provided you have the associated viewers or source applications on your PC):
Note: CA OM Web Viewer does not support Xerox format, therefore, we suggest that you convert these documents to PDF files.
CA Output Management Web Viewer provides easy access to documents that reside on a mainframe. The data is not stored on your computer, rather, the document resides in the product database; therefore, you can view the document without downloading it to your PC.
CA Output Management Web Viewer lets you email and save any type of document. It also enables you to view, print, and export text documents. You cannot edit an original document but you can save a copy of any document on your PC. You can also save documents created by PC applications (for example, Microsoft Word files and Microsoft Excel spreadsheets) by invoking the associated application.
Yes. CA Output Management Web Viewer must be running on the same server as Java web server.
Yes. CA Output Management Web Viewer 12 administration tools are integrated as a part of the web application. You need to log in to CA OM Web Viewer to make updates.
To implement cooperative processing with CA Output Management Web Viewer, you must install CA Output Management Web Viewer on a Java web server.
On the host computer, you will need TCP/IP, either the IBM version or CA TCPaccess Communication Server. In addition, you need to have CAICCI and the CCITCP task active. CA DRAS is a separate product that must be installed and configured to run with the mainframe solution you are currently running, which can include the following:
CA Output Management Web Viewer stores user ID and repository information in a JDBC-compliant database. You can also choose to use an embedded database automatically deployed by CA OM Web Viewer instead of an external one.
Important! Because the embedded database is a component that belongs to the installed CA OM Web Viewer application, undeploying/uninstalling CA OM Web Viewer will also remove the embedded database, if the embedded database is created under the application’s working folder. This situation is applicable on some application servers such as Tomcat.
We recommend that you use an external database, to avoid administrative data from being affected by undeploying/uninstalling or redeploying/re-installing CA OM Web Viewer.
If you selected to produce an EAR file during the installation, you can deploy this EAR file on WebSphere without additional settings. If you selected to produce WAR files, you will need to set class loader order to Classes loaded with local class loader first (parent last) in WebSphere for both application level and module level.
In addition, when redeploying an application on WebSphere, you may need to remove those compiled class files remaining from the previous installation. Those files can be located under the temp folder such as the following:
WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/temp/ServerNode01/server1
You may need to modify the configuration file to turn on the show-archived-real-path-enabled attribute.
To modify the configuration file
<web-app-container>
<show-archived-real-path-enabled>true</show-archived-real-path-enabled>
</web-app-container>
Find the file apache-tomcat/conf/server.xml and edit it in ASCII mode.
To change the port number, find the following line and change the setting. The string 8080 may be different if you specified another number during the installation.
<Connector port="8080">
To change the shutdown port, find the following line in the same file and change the port number. You may set the port number to -1 if you want to turn off the shutdown daemon.
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
No, Web Viewer does not use the system temp folder at run-time.
Be aware that CA OM Web Viewer is a Java EE application, so it may use the temp folder designated by the application server to which Web Viewer is deployed.
Be sure to use the Configuration tab to change the login role.
CA OM Web Viewer should see some benefit assuming HiperSockets are properly configured.
There is no specific data file size for the database needed for CA OM Web Viewer in various database systems. The size depends on how many repositories, roles, and users would be set up and managed in the CA OM Web Viewer system. Approximately, it is up to 10 MB of table space to hold 100 repositories, 50 roles, and 1000 users, not including the audit log records that go into the database.
