Manage User Resources › Upload Agent Resources

Upload Agent Resources

Users with Domain Administrator permissions can upload resources to the Agent Resources folder on the Domain Orchestrator. The uploaded resource can be a jar file, for example, a JDBC driver. The uploaded agent resources are mirrored at the configured mirroring interval. After mirroring occurs, you restart the agents. Restarted agents can use the uploaded agent resources.

Follow these steps:

1. Browse to CA Process Automation and log in.
2. Click the Configuration tab.
3. Click the Manage User Resources palette and expand the Repository folder.
4. Select the Agent Resources folder and click New.

   The Add New Resource: "Untitled" pane opens

5. Provide upload details, using the following field descriptions as needed.
   1. Enter the name of the resource in the Resource Name field.

      If you are uploading a JDBC driver, type database_name Driver; where database_name is the RDBMS. For example, Oracle Driver, MySQL Driver, or Sybase Driver.

   2. Click Browse, navigate to the location where you saved the jar file, and select the target file.

      This populates the Resource File field with the file and its path.

   3. (Optional) Select a user-defined module name from the Module Name drop-down list.
   4. (Optional) Enter a meaningful description in the Resource Description field.
6. Verify your entry. Then, click Save.

   A line with your entry displays.

   CA Process Automation copies the uploaded resources, for example, a JDBC driver, to the following path, where install_dir is the directory on the server where the Domain Orchestrator was installed.

   install_dir/server/c2o/.c2orepository/.c2oagentresources/lib/drivers/jars
   

7. After mirroring completes, restart the agents where you need the uploaded jar files. The jar files are put in the classpath of the restarted agents.

   Note: See How to Start or Stop an Agent for details on restarting agents.
