Setting up the Cron conversion environment using Control-M/Agents

If you want to use Control-M/Agents to extract your Cron data, you need to set up your Cron environment.

Before you begin

Ensure the following:

• Control-M Agent is installed and running on the same environment as the Conversion Tool.
• Control-M Agent is connected to a Control-M Server and that the Agent is available.
• Control-M Server allows execution of the ctmpsm and ctmcreate utilities by the Agent.

To set up the Cron conversion environment:

1. Copy the following script files from the Conversion Tool's script folder, <Conversion Home>/scripts/DataCollection, to your Control-M Server:
   • captureScriptUNIX.txt
   • captureScriptWindows.txt
2. Open the Conversion Tool and start defining a Cron conversion project, as described in Defining a new Cron conversion project.
