Various monitoring job types are available with the CA WA System Agent. They monitor resources on the operating environment where the agent is executing. For selected monitors, you can monitor another IP address. You can monitor the CPU usage, a disk drive usage, an IP address, processes, and selected logs. CA WA CA 7 Edition submits these jobs. When the condition is met, the job ends when the keyword WAITMODE WAIT is coded. For immediate feedback, WAITMODE NOW tests for the condition and the job succeeds if the condition is met, or fails if the condition is not met.
Note: For WAITMODE WAIT job types, the CA 7 job number is active to that job until the condition is met. Thus, the CA 7 job number is not available for other jobs being attached to the request queue.
In the preceding FTP example, FTP uses port 21 and thus that port must be active before FTP using it for data transmission. If port 21 is not available, raise the attention of the operations staff. The following is a job that verifies port 21 is available before trying an FTP job:
------------------------- CA-7 Agent Job Definition -------------------- Function: LIST (Add, DD, Delete, Format, List, Purge, Update) Job: AGQIP001 System: TESTAPP JOBNET: Owner: UID: 0 Agent Job Type: IP_MON Agent: WINA User: USERA Parmlib: &TESTJCL Member: AGQIP001 Use-Ovrd-Lib: N EXEC: Y Hold: N Verify: N DRClass: ARFSET: Satisfaction Lead Time: 0 WLBClass: A WLBPRTY: 000 Clock Time: 0000 Don't Schedule Before: 00000 0000 After: 99999 0000 LTERM: MASTER Prompt: Y Rqmt List: Y Rqmts Not Used: Y
The following are parameters to verify that IP port 21 is active:
IPADDRESS 999.99.9.999 IPPORT 21 STATUS RUNNING NOW WAITMODE NOW
If the port is stopped, the job fails (back into the request queue) and the status returned indicates the fact:

If the job completes, the indicated port is active, and any triggered jobs (such as the FTP job) are submitted for execution. Verify the status using the command AGFILE,JOB=AGQIP001,TYPE=INFO (or the IN line command from the AGFILE,JOB=AGQIP001,LIST=ALL command):
----------------- CA-7 Job INFO For Agent EROCAGENT --------- Jobname: AGQIP001 CA7#: 0416 System: TESTAPP SchId: 0001 Q-DtTm: yyddd hhmm Job Type: IP_MON Agent: WINA Host: HOST-NAME-LOCATION STATUS: Ping 99.999.9.999.21 is running
Perhaps there is a process that an application must have stopped before it can submit some “job” to execute. The application can help ensure that the process is stopped by setting up a process monitor job.
------------------------- CA-7 Agent Job Definition --------------------- Function: LIST (Add, DD, Delete, Format, List, Purge, Update) Job: JOBPM System: TESTAPP JOBNET: Owner: UID: 0 Agent Job Type: PROCESS_MON Agent: UNIXA User: Parmlib: &TESTJCL Member: JOBPM Use-Ovrd-Lib: N EXEC: Y Hold: N Verify: N DRClass: ARFSET: Satisfaction Lead Time: 0 WLBClass: A WLBPRTY: 000 Clock Time: 0001 Don't Schedule Before: 00000 0000 After: 99999 0000 LTERM: MASTER Prompt: Y Rqmt List: Y Rqmts Not Used: Y
The control language (parameters) includes the following:
PROCESS abcApplication STATUS STOPPED NOW
The job completes successfully when the process is not currently executing. This can be verified through the AGFILE,JOB=JOBPM,TYPE=INFO command:
----------------- CA-7 Job INFO For Agent UNIXA --------- Jobname: JOBPM CA7#: 1419 System: TESTAPP SchId: 0001 Q-DtTm: yyddd hhmm Job Type: PROCESS_MON Agent: UNIXA Host: HOST-UNIXA STATUS: Process abcApplication is stopped
