Managing the Workload Automation environments
Through Clara Dashboard > Environments page you can add, modify, or delete the Workload Automation environments managed by Clara. You can also set the environment currently in use by Clara.
Two environment tables are available and you can switch from one to another:
-
WAd table, showing the environments available for HCL Workload Automation (WAd).
-
WAz table, showing the environments available for HCL Workload Automation for Z (WAz).
The environment that is currently in use by Clara is highlighted in turquoise.
Actions that you can run on each environment are:
-
Set in use - to switch from the currently used environment to another.
-
Edit - to edit the environment configuration parameters.
-
Delete - to delete the environment. You cannot delete the environment currently in use.
