Importing Cron data using Control-M/Agents

This procedure describes how to import Cron data using Control-M/Agents.

For more information about defining a new Cron conversion project, see Defining a new Cron conversion project.

To import Cron data using Control-M/Agents:

1. In the Cron - Load Data window, select the agents from which you want to retrieve data.
2. You can do one or more of the following:
   • Select all available agents at one time, click Select All.
   • Clear the check box(es) of all available agents, click Clear All.
   • Select the agents that are not currently selected, and clear the check boxes for agents that are currently selected, click Invert Selection.

     For example, if you have 50 agents and want to select 40 of them quickly, you can select the 10 agents that you don't want, and then click Invert Selection.

   • Refresh the Agents list, and view agents that were not available previously, click Refresh.
   • Filter a column, click .

   If the status of an agent is Available in the Agent Status column, but you are not able to select the check box for the agent, you need to make sure the correct platform is selected for that agent.

   NOTE: In the Cron - Load Data window, you can also add data manually. For more information, see Importing Cron data using the Add Data Manually button.

   You can only retrieve data from agents that are available and connected to the server.

3. Select the agent you want, and click Next.

   The Confirmation Jobs Submission dialog box appears.

4. Click Yes to execute the number of jobs to be retrieved in Control-M.

   These jobs are added to Active Jobs in Control-M and are applied to your overall count for the day.

5. The Cron - Load Data window appears.

   You can view the status of the data retrieval. For more information, see Data Retrieval status.

6. In the Cron - Load Data window, you can also add data manually. For more information, see Importing Cron data using the Add Data Manually button.
7. Click Import to complete the data import phase.

   NOTE: The Import button is only available when data is successfully retrieved. Once you click Import, you cannot add more data to this conversion project.

   The data is loaded into the Conversion Tool and in Assessment Report window, a summary of the imported data appears. For more information, see Data evaluation.
