Setting additional CA AutoSys Workload Automation rules

This procedure explains how to set additional CA Autosys Workload Automation (Autosys) rules.

After you have imported your data, you can modify conversion rules by setting general rules and Field Editor rules. For more information about AutoSys recommended practices, see CA AutoSys recommended practices.

Before you begin

Ensure that the Conversion Settings window is open. For more information, see Modifying conversion settings.

To set additional AutoSys rules:

1. From the Additional Autosys Rules tab, in the General area, select the local time zone of the Control-M/Server computer from the Local Timezone drop-down list. In Control-M jobs, the local time zone is replaced with an empty value.
2. In the Source Command text box, enter the command used to source the script defined in the profile field of your source scheduler.
3. Select the Convert unscheduled boxes to USERDAILY="ON_DEMAND" check box.

   NOTE: By default Control-M runs the jobs automatically. By checking the box the jobs run on demand.

4. In the Un-boxed jobs area, specify how to configure standalone jobs by choosing one of the following options:
   • GROUP all standalone jobs in one folder: Enables standalone jobs to be grouped into one folder.
   • Create a different folder for each standalone job: Enables you to create a different folder for each standalone job.
5. To define the condition format in Control-M, in the Convert to format field, from the dropdown list, select one of the following condition format options:
   • {Job/Folder Name}_Status
   • {Job/Folder Name}-TO-{TargetJob:Job/Folder Name}
6. In the File Watcher Type area, select one of the following:
   • AFT
   • Ctmfw utility

   By default, File Watcher jobs are converted to Control-M for AFT (AFT) jobs. The second option allows the use of the Control-M File Watcher utility instead. For more information, see ctmfw File Watcher utility in Control-M Utilities.

7. In the SAP area, select the Enable SAP conversion check box to convert SAP jobs using the Control-M for SAP forms.
8. In the PeopleSoft area, select the Enable PeopleSoft conversion check box to convert PeopleSoft jobs using the Control-M for PeopleSoft forms.
9. Click Next to start the conversion.

   A message appears confirming that conversion is in progress. The results appear in the Conversion Results window, as described in Conversion results.

   NOTE: The conversion rules are automatically saved after you run the conversion. The set of conversion rules appears in the Conversion rules list in the Run Conversion window. You can use these rules in future conversions.
