Configuring CA7 Schedulers (Web UI)

To integrate AAI and CA7, the CA7 Server for AAI must be installed and configured in your system. Once this is done, you can add the CA7 scheduler and establish the connection so that data delivery can start. This topic explains how to add, configure, view, edit and delete CA7 schedulers from the web UI.

Note:

To add a CA7 system into AAI, the integration between both must be completed. For this purpose you implement either the CA7 Server for AAI (and then start it) or the batch integration.

For more information see:

With the integration a set of definition data files and at least one RPT70 file are created in the Data Delivery Path. Once this is done you can proceed with adding a CA7 scheduler. The Data Delivery Path specified must already exist on the AAI server.

This page includes the following:

Adding a Scheduler

  1. Go to System and click the Add Scheduler button.

  2. Enter a descriptive Name that the people who will work with the data from this scheduler can easily recognize. The name must be unique in your system. The dialog to configure the scheduler is displayed.

  3. In Connection Properties enter the Data Delivery Path.

  4. Click Test Connection to confirm that AAI can see the data files in the Data Delivery Path.

  5. Click Save Changes. The new scheduler is added to the list of already connected systems. Initially, its status is In Progress until the scheduler is completely connected to AAI.

Viewing a Scheduler

Click and existing scheduler in the list. The dialog that is displayed provides the scheduler configuration data as you entered when adding it. You cannot edit anything here. For details about each field, see the Adding a Scheduler section above.

Note:

When setting up this type of scheduler, you specify the intervals in which the job definitions are automatically refreshed through the Config tool.

The Update Now button on this dialog provides an on-demand job definition update function. If you click it, AAI retrieves the latest job data from the scheduler.

Editing a Scheduler

  1. Click the scheduler that you want to modify and click Edit on the dialog that is displayed.

  2. The resulting dialog provides the scheduler configuration data in two tabs, Monitoring Details and Connection Configuration, as you entered them when you added it. For details about each field, see Adding a Scheduler above.

  3. Click the Edit button at the top of this dialog to make the fields editable, then make your changes and save them.

Deleting a Scheduler

  1. In the Schedulers list select the scheduler that you want to delete.

  2. Click Delete on the dialog that is displayed.
