Installing the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent
|This chapter describes how to perform a first-time installation |of the current version of Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent (z-centric).
|You install this agent to run workload from the mainframe to distributed |systems with a low cost of ownership.
|Using this agent you can run your workload:
|-
|
- Statically |
- To run existing job types, for example scripts, on a specific Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent. |In this case, you install the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent on the distributed systems and |connect it to the z/OS system through the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS controller. | |
- Statically including job types with advanced options |
- In this case, you install the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent on the distributed systems |adding the Java runtime, and |connect it to the z/OS system through the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS controller. | |
- Dynamically |
- To run existing job types allowing the product to assign them |to the workstation that best meets both the hardware and software |requirements needed to run them. In this case, you install the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent on |the distributed systems adding the dynamic capabilities, and connect |it to the dynamic domain manager. Refer to the Tivoli® Workload Scheduler: Planning and Installation Guide for |a detailed explanation on how to install a dynamic domain manager for a z/OS controller. |During the installation of the dynamic domain manager for a z/OS controller, you must |provide the master domain manager and the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Netman |port values, even if these values are not used in a z/OS lightweight |end-to-end configuration because the fault-tolerant agents is not needed. | |

- To run existing job types and job types with advanced options |allowing the product to assign them to the workstation that best meets |both the hardware and software requirements needed to run them. In |this case, you install the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS Agent on the distributed systems adding |the dynamic capabilities and the Java runtime, |then connecting it to the dynamic domain manager. Refer to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler: Planning and Installation Guide for a detailed explanation on how |to install a dynamic domain manager for a z/OS controller. During the installation |of the dynamic domain manager for a z/OS controller, you must provide the master domain manager and the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Netman port values, |even if these values are not used in a z/OS lightweight end-to-end |configuration because the fault-tolerant agents is not needed. | |
