Installing version 10.2.1

This section describes how to apply version 10.2.1 to HCL Workload Automation.

Installation notes
  • Before installing the release, ensure you have installed the required prerequisite software. To obtain the latest information about software requirements, see Product Requirements.
  • The minimum required WebSphere Liberty version to successfully install the release is 22.0.0.3 or later.
  • Before installing this release on AIX® V7.1 operating systems, apply the patch for APAR IZ99634. For more information, see: APAR IZ99634.
  • Before you install on UNIX operating systems, ensure that umask is set to 022. To verify that umask is set to the correct value, from a command prompt, run the umask command. If the value is different from 022, modify it by running the following command:
    umask 022
  • On UNIX operating systems, the database administrator must have read and run privileges for the HCL Workload Automation installation path. If this is not the case, the installation fails. (54367)
After the installation completes, verify the following information:
  • This release installs a new version of the file tws_env.sh (tws_env.cmd) and also creates a backup file named, tws_env.sh.bk (tws_env.cmd.bk), which are both saved to the TWA_HOME/TWS directory, where TWA_HOME is the HCL Workload Automation installation directory. After completing the installation, if you have modified the original version, merge the content of the new version with the content of the customized version to carry your customized content into the new version.
  • Only on Windows operating systems, to correctly display double-byte character set (DBCS) characters, perform the following actions:
    • Set the LANG environment variable to the DBCS language code you want to use, for example, set LANG=zh_CN.
    • Set the TWS_TISDIR environment variable to the HCL Workload Automation home directory, for example, set TWS_TISDIR=C:\FTA\TWS.
    • Open the Control Panel window and click Clock, Language, and Region.
    • Click Region and Language.
    • In the Format tab, choose from the Format drop-down list the language you want to use.
    • In the Keyboards and Languages tab, under Display Language, click install and follow the steps to install the DBCS language pack you want to use.
    • In the Administrative tab, click Change system locale and, from the drop-down list, choose the language (system locale) you want to use.
    Note that all the settings must be consistent, that is they must refer to the same DBCS language setting. After you have completed these changes, reboot your workstation to have the changes take effect.
  • When installing a dynamic agent or a fault-tolerant agent, ensure that the agent name does not start with a number. If the name of the dynamic agent starts with a number, use the -displayname parameter at installation time to specify a different name. If the name of the fault-tolerant agent starts with a number, use the --thiscpu parameter at installation time to specify a different name.
Interoperability notes
HCL Workload Automation version 10.2.1 supports all product versions indicated in HCL Workload Automation Version 10.2.0 Release Notes.
Installation methods
You can install the release using one of the following methods:
For master domain manager or its backup:
see Updating the master domain manager and its backup.
For dynamic domain manager or its backup:
see Updating the dynamic domain manager.
For fault-tolerant agent, dynamic agent or domain manager:
see Updating agents.
Disk space requirements

For the most up-to-date information about disk space and memory requirements, see the Supported Hardware document in Product Requirements.

Before starting the installation, ensure you have the necessary disk space available on the file system. Consider that the disk space check calculated by the installation considers the entire space occupied by the TWA_HOME directory. The space required by the backup is the sum of the following directories:
TWA_HOME/TWS + TWA_HOME/TDWB + TWA_HOME/wastools + TWA_HOME/properties

If the installation fails because of lack of free disk space, stop the installation, free space on your disk, and start the installation again.

In addition to the disk space in the following table, the installation requires an additional 600 MB available on the file system where the IMShared directory is located.
