HCL Workload Automation interfaces
The HCL Workload Automation features several user interfaces from which you can manage your production environment.
About this task
You can manage your production environment from the following
user interfaces:
- Master domain manager command lines
- The master domain manager command lines are installed automatically when you install the master domain manager. This command lines interface are run only from the workstation serving as the master domain manager. From the command lines, you can administer the master specific binaries and options. A backup master domain manager command lines also exist on the master domain manager configured as backup instance.
- Dynamic Workload Console

- Orchestration CLI (OCLI)
- Orchestration CLI is a stand-alone command-line application that you can download and install independently without requiring any other HCL Workload Automation component. You can install Orchestration CLI on any workstation where you want to manage and control workflows. It is designed to replace the composer and conman commands, by providing a more modern, efficient, and versatile interface. By using Orchestration CLI, you can automate tasks efficiently, reducing manual effort and operational overhead. Orchestration CLI helps you streamline command-line interactions, enhance cross-platform compatibility, and build a more efficient workload automation process. It also simplifies maintenance, lowers costs, and minimizes IT requirements.
