Working with Agents › Add an Authorized Manager

Add an Authorized Manager

When a scheduling manager tries to communicate with the local agent using a proper encryption key, the local agent automatically adds that scheduling manager to its authorized manager list. However, you can manually add a scheduling manager that is authorized to communicate with the local agent.

The Authorized Manager List pane on the Agent - CA Workload Automation AE Administrator window lists the scheduling managers that are authorized to communicate with the local agent.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Start, Programs, CA, Workload Automation AE, Administrator.
