The procedure for registering an Automated Operation Process from a Web console is shown below.
Systemwalker Runbook Automation Studio is operated as follows:
Export the workflow application project from the workspace to the local file system to package all the files that make up the application as a .bar file.
The procedure is shown below.
Right-click a project name in the Navigator view. Select Export from the pop-up menu. Alternatively, this option can also be selected from the Files menu.
The Export Workflow Application Project dialog box will be displayed. The local file system and the name of the .bar file that was selected in the workspace will be displayed.
Figure 4.1 Displaying the Export Workflow Application Project dialog box
Specify the project component to be exported. Follow the procedure shown below.
Select the application to be exported from the Application drop-down menu. The default application is the name of the project selected in the Navigator view.
All the files that make up the application will be displayed.
Use the check boxes to select or deselect the files to be exported. The Select ALL or Deselect All buttons can be used to select or deselect all the files, respectively.
Use the Archive File drop-down list to specify the file in which the project to be exported will be archived. The Browse tab can also be used to browse the archive files. The default name of the archive file is the name of the project to be exported (such as the Prac001.bar file).
The file path will be displayed in the Archive File drop-down list.
(C:\tmp, for example)
The following diagram shows how to select a specific project component and how to specify the default archive file.
Figure 4.2 Specifying a project component and archive file
Select the project component to be exported, specify an archive file, and click Finish to export the project.
This will save the workflow application project as the Prac001.bar file in the directory specified in the local file system.
The procedure for creating an Automated Operation Process Group on a Web console is shown below.
Note that in order to create an Automated Operation Process Group space using the explanation given here, you must log in as a user with administrator privileges.
From the System Administration tab, open the Process Group Settings submenu.
Select Create Process Group Space from the tool bar.
The Create Process Group Space dialog box will be displayed.
Enter the identification information of the Automated Operation Process Group in the Process Group ID field. When a process group space is created, the information entered in the process group ID will also be registered as the process group name. The ID specified here will be displayed in the list of Automated Operation Process Group URLs later.
Note
Blank spaces and special characters cannot be used in Automated Operation Process Group IDs. Only alphanumeric characters and underscores can be used.
Enter the role or group to which the Automated Operation Process Group belongs in the Process Group Owner field. If nothing is specified in this field, the default administrator group will be allocated as the Process Group Owner.
Click Create. This Automated Operation Process Group will also be added under the apps subdirectory that was specified as the DMS Application Root Directory at console setup, and which is under the tenant-specific directory in the Management Server directory.
Updating an Automated Operation Process Group registers the *.bar file created by Systemwalker Runbook Automation Studio in the Management Server.
Prerequisites
An Automated Operation Process Group space that has been created on a Web console is required.
The Automated Operation Process Group space to be updated must be displayed in the details tab of the Process Group Settings submenu, which is in the System Administration tab.
The status of the Automated Operation Process Group must be Offline.
Refer to "8.1.3 Giving Automated Operation Process Groups Offline Status" for the procedure for giving Automated Operation Process Groups Offline status.
When the creation of an Automated Operation Process Group using Systemwalker Runbook Automation Studio has completed, always check that it has been saved in *.bar file format.
Note
Before updating an Automated Operation Process Group, export the Automated Operation Process Group to a directory that will not be affected by the update procedure (such as C:)and back it up. To provide against data or settings files being corrupted by updates, execute a backup each time an Automated Operation Process Group is updated.
The procedure is shown below.
When the status is such that the process group space of the Automated Operation Process Group to be updated is displayed in the details tab of the Process Group Settings submenu, click Update.
The Update Process Group dialog box will be displayed in the details panel.
Refer to "4.2.2.2 Creating Automated Operation Process Group Spaces" for information on creating an Automated Operation Process Group space.
Click Browse and move to the folder that contains the Automated Operation Process Group (*.bar file). Select the BAR file and click Browse .
The BAR file will be displayed in BAR File.
Click Update.
The process group space will be updated, including all process definitions and processes that are part of the BAR file contents and the Automated Operation Process Group.
Note
Process definitions
If a process definition with the same name exists on the server, a process definition will be registered as a new version.
A process definition on the server will not be deleted by update processing.
Files other than process definitions
A file on the server will be overwritten by an uploaded file.
A file on the server that does not exist in an uploaded BAR file will be deleted.
If the Automated Operation Process Group that has just finished being installed includes an activity that has been allocated to a group that is not listed in the local group list, a group must be added. Follow the procedure shown below to add a group to the local group list.
When you select the Group submenu in the System Administration tab, group information will be displayed in the details panel.
When you select a group from the list panel, the group details will be displayed in the details panel.
When you right-click the group list and select New from the pop-up menu, the New Group dialog box will be displayed, and you can create a new group.
Note
If the group that the installed Automated Operation Process Group is to use is not added to the group list, the process has an undefined group for allocation of the activity. This results in an error status.
