Jobs

Job definitions control all aspects of job processing, from submission through execution and completion. This release of CA WCC supports numerous job types using agent technology.

Agents let you automate, monitor, and manage workload on all major platforms, applications, and databases. To run workload on a particular system, your agent administrator needs to install the appropriate agent on that system. For example, if your workload must run on a UNIX computer, your administrator must install and configure the CA WA Agent for UNIX, which lets you create jobs to run UNIX scripts, execute UNIX commands, transfer files using FTP, monitor file activity on the agent computer, and perform many other tasks.

The CA Workload Automation Agent for UNIX, Linux or Windows is provided with your scheduling manager, giving you a broad set of default job types. Additional agents are available to augment that set.

By extending the functionality of your scheduling manager with agents, you can use CA WCC to define and schedule the following types of jobs:

Note: For more information about each job type, including how to create them and their job properties, see the Workload Scheduling Guide.
