How to Install Patches and Connectors with CA Process Automation 4.2

This section describes how to install CA Process Automation Connectors with JBoss 5.1 on a host.

Administrators can install the CA Process Automation Connectors to enable CA Process Automation to interact with other products (CA Products and Third-party Products) to automate business use cases. Each connector acts as a module which contains a set of operators. The operators interact with APIs of other products and are used to create CA Process Automation flows.

As a prerequisite, ensure that you have installed CA Process Automation on the host. The CA Process Automation Connector executable is present on the host.

Important! To successfully install CA Process Automation patch and connector, shutdown all the orchestrator nodes and install the CA Process Automation patch and connector on all nodes (Domain and Non-Domain).

Follow these steps:

1. Run the CA Process Automation Connector Executable.

   The "Welcome to the ..." page appears.

2. Accept the license agreement and click Next.
3. In the Select CA Process Automation Installation Directory page, provide the install_dir location.
4. In the Choose Connectors to Install/Update page, select the connectors to be installed and Click Next.

   The CA Process Automation Connector is installed.

5. To verify the CA Process Automation Connector installation, browse to CA Process Automation and log in. Click the Designer tab and click New Process.

   The installed CA Process Automation connector with its operators is listed in the Operators view.
