Scheduler Type - CA Workload Automation ESP

This page guides you through creating a new scheduler for CA Workload Automation ESP (ESP).

You can add ESP schedulers before installing the Automic Automation Connector. However, you will not be able to use them until the Connector is up and running. For more information, see AAI Integration for CA Workload Automation ESP.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Command java not Found

Indications

Output similar to the following when running software manually or when started automatically (OS-specific):

$ cd /opt/terma/jobtrac-connector

$ java -jar jobtrac-connector-1.0.0.jar

Problem Description

This message indicates a Java virtual machine is either not installed or available in the path for the current user on the host or container. The software requires an available, compatible Java virtual machine in order to work.

Resolution

Install a Java 8-compatible Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK). For more information, see Prerequisites. Re-run the software normally, once complete.
