A network consists of a set of linked workstations on which you perform job scheduling and processing to automate and manage your workflows. An HCL Workload Automation network is composed of a master domain manager, one or more Dynamic Workload Console servers, dynamic domain managers, and dynamic agents. You might also have fault-tolerant agents, extended agents, standard agents connected to the master domain manager or to domain managers.
