Multiple product instances

Because HCL Workload Automation supports multiple product instances installed on the same computer, there can be more than one instance of the useropts file per user. This is achieved by giving the useropts files for a user different names for each instance.

In the localopts file of each instance the option named useropts identifies the file name of the useropts file that has to be accessed in the user_home/.TWS directory to connect to that installation instance.

This means that, for example, if two HCL Workload Automation instances are installed on a computer and the user operator is a user of both instances, you could define the useropts credentials as follows:

In the localopts file of the first instance the local option useropts = useropts1 identifies the operator_home/.TWS/useropts1 file containing the connection parameters settings that user operator needs to use to connect to the first HCL Workload Automation instance.
In the localopts file of the second HCL Workload Automation instance the local option useropts = useropts2 identifies the operator_home/.TWS/useropts2 file containing the connection parameters settings that user operator needs to use to connect to the second HCL Workload Automation instance.
