- This Fix Pack can be applied only on top of HCL Workload Automation V9.5.0, and subsequent Fix Packs.
This section includes the following subsections:
Features introduced with Fix Pack 6
- Version 9.5 Fix Pack 6 delivers the following enhancements:
-
- USERJOBS clean up utility
- The USERJOBS tool has been developed to clean up Broker Tables in
case of jobs in never ending EXEC status inside the USERJBOBS job
stream. To resolve USERJOBS carryforward issues, a
new command has been provided in the TWDWB/bin
to automate the procedure: cleanuserjobs.sh(bat).
The command can be invoked as
follows:
cleanuserjobs.sh(bat)-dbUsr <username> -dbPwd <password> -jobnum <jobnumber> | -file <filename>
- jobnumber can be written in these formats: #Jjobnumber, Jjobnumber or jobnumber.
- filename can contain a list of jobs, limited to one job per row.
- WebSphere Liberty available ciphers
- The new ./listciphers.sh(bat) command has been provided in the TWDWB/bin to automate the procedure that lists all available ciphers defined in WebSphere Liberty.
- enDbGetOpsAudit
- You can now enable or disable auditing on database GET operations. Disabling this auditing feature might improve performance. All other database operations are not affected. Find more detailed information in Setting global options.
- RFE WAO-348
-
It is now possible to install the dynamic agent on IBM i connecting to the system with a user different from QSECOFR.

Backward compatibility
This fix pack delivers support for scheduling objects in folders, including workstations. When
monitoring workstations from a back-level agent workstation, the output displays the workstation
unique identifier and not the workstation name for those workstations that were defined in folders
different from the root folder. To identify the corresponding workstation name, run the
conman command using the showid filter, showcpu
;showid
, from an updated agent workstation.

Installing the Fix Pack
This section describes how to apply Fix Pack 6 to HCL Workload Automation.
Installation notes
When installing the HCL Workload Automation Fix Pack, follow these recommendations:
-
On AIX 7.1, install the latest version of libz.a (packed in zlib-1.2.13), which is necessary; if not already installed, install the following rpm:
https://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc/zlib/zlib-1.2.13-1.aix7.1.ppc.rpm
- Before installing the Fix Pack, ensure you have installed the required prerequisite software. To obtain the latest information about software requirements for HCL Workload Automation, see Product Requirements.
- The minimum required WebSphere Liberty version to successfully install the fixpack is 22.0.0.3 or later.
- Before installing this Fix Pack on AIX® V7.1 operating systems, you must apply the patch for APAR IZ99634. For more information, see: APAR IZ99634.
- On UNIX™ operating systems, before installing the
HCL Workload Automation Fix Pack, ensure that your 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 command:
umask 022
- On UNIX operating systems, the database administrator must have read and run privileges for the HCL Workload Automation installation path; otherwise the installation fails. (54367)
- This Fix Pack 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 installing the Fix Pack, if you have modified the original version, merge the content of the new version with the content of the original version to carry your customized content into the new version.
- Only on Windows operating systems, to correctly display
double-byte character set (DBCS) characters, you must 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.
- Set the
- 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.

- Install the master domain manager or upgrade your current master domain manager to version 9.5.0.5
- Replace the values of the following parameters in the
localopts file with the following values:
- nm SSL full port = 31113
- SSL key =TWA_home/TWS/ssl/OpenSSL/TWSClient.key
- SSL certificate = TWA_home/TWS/ssl/OpenSSL/TWSClient.cer
- SSL key pwd = TWA_home/TWS/ssl/OpenSSL/password.sth
- SSL CA certificate = TWA_home/TWS/ssl/OpenSSL/TWSTrustCertificates.cer
- SSL random seed =TWA_home/TWS/ssl/OpenSSL/TWS.rnd
- SSL Encryption Cipher = TLSv1.2
- Modify the master domain manager
and broker using the composer mod command, as
follows:
CCPUNAME your_master_domain_manager_workstation DESCRIPTION "MANAGER CPU" OS UNIX NODE localhost TCPADDR 31111 SECUREADDR 31113 DOMAIN MASTERDM FOR MAESTRO TYPE MANAGER AUTOLINK ON BEHINDFIREWALL OFF SECURITYLEVEL FORCE_ENABLED FULLSTATUS ON END
CPUNAME your_broker_workstation DESCRIPTION "This workstation was automatically created." OS OTHER NODE localhost TCPADDR 41114 SECUREADDR 41114 DOMAIN MASTERDM FOR MAESTRO TYPE BROKER AUTOLINK ON BEHINDFIREWALL OFF SECURITYLEVEL FORCE_ENABLED FULLSTATUS OFF END
- Modify the Broker.Workstation.PortSSL parameter in the
BrokerWorkstation.properties file from
false to true.
The Broker.Workstation.PortSSL parameter specifies the port used by the broker server to listen to the incoming traffic (equivalent to the Netman port) in SSL mode. It is first assigned at installation time. This port number must always be the same for all the broker servers that you define in your HCL Workload Automation network (one with the master domain manager and one with every backup master domain manager you install) to ensure consistency when you switch masters.
- Stop and start WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base, as described in Application server - starting and stopping.
- Stop and start all HCL Workload Automation processes.
- Run
Jnextplan -for 0000
Before Installing
- If you have jobs scheduled to run on the instance you are upgrading, make sure that
they have completed otherwise some processes, such as
jobmon
orjoblnch
, might still be active. - Download the appropriate ZIP files for the operating system from HCL License Portal .
- Extract the content of the ZIP files into a directory, using one of the extraction tools
available on your system or downloadable from the Internet. The tool you use must be able
to keep the file permissions on the extracted files, for example, infozip. Note:
- If you want to install the Fix Pack on IBM i, to untar the eImages, see Extract the eImages for the Z Agent and Dynamic Agent on IBM i operating systems.
- To extract the .zip file onto a Windows 64-bit system, ensure that the eImage is not located on the desktop because the Windows operating system extract tool has a problem. Choose another directory into which to extract the Fix Pack eImage.
Creating or updating the HCL Workload Automation database schema
Before launching any of the installation methods, create or update the database schema.
Before applying the Fix Pack, create the database schema by following the procedure described in the Creating and updating the database tables chapter in the HCL Workload Automation guide.
- On Windows operating systems
-
cscript configureDb.vbs --rdbmstype db_type --dbhostname db_hostname --dbport db_port --dbname db_name --dbuser db_user --dbpassword db_password --dbadminuser db_administrator --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
- On UNIX operating systems
-
./configureDb.sh --rdbmstype db_type --dbhostname db_hostname --dbport db_port --dbname db_name --dbuser db_user --dbpassword db_password --dbadminuser db_administrator --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
If a new version of the database is available, update to it by following the procedure described in the Upgrading the database schema chapter in the HCL Workload Automation guide.
Extract the Images for the Agent and Dynamic Agent on IBM i operating systems
- HWA95_FP6IBM_I_AGENT.zip: The dynamic agent on IBM i image. This package also contains an extraction tool executable that can be copied to the IBM i workstation.
To untar or unzip the Fix Pack eImages, you can use the PASE shell or the AIXterm.
- Using PASE shell:
-
- Open the PASE shell.
- Run the command:
"CALL QP2TERM"
- Locate the folder where you downloaded the Fix Pack eImage and run the command:
- Dynamic agent
- "unzip HWA95_FP2_IBM_I_AGENT.zip"
- Exit from the PASE shell.
- Using AIXterm:
