You can now set the riskConfidence optman key to obtain an automatic evaluation of the risk level for a critical job.
If the probability of completing the critical job before the deadline is below the level you set for the riskConfidence key, the critical job is considered at high risk. The calculation is performed by comparing the confidence factor of completing before deadline and the percentage specified in this parameter. For more information, see the Global options - detailed description section in the Administration Guide.

Configure WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base and dynamic agents in SSL mode
You can now configure WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base and dynamic agents in SSL mode at installation time. When you perform a fresh installation from the CLI, you can now optionally specify a set of parameters to have your environment automatically set up in SSL mode. You only need to provide the path to the certificates and the password you want to define for the keystore and truststore. HCL Workload Automation automatically generates the keystore and truststore with the specified password and configures WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base and dynamic agents in SSL mode. For more information, see Master components installation - serverinst script, Dynamic Workload Console installation - dwcinst script, and Agent installation parameters - twsinst script in the Planning and Installation Guide. You can also see how these parameters are used in a typical installation in Installing the master domain manager and backup master domain manager, Installing the Dynamic Workload Console servers, and Agent installation parameters - twsinst script in the Planning and Installation Guide.

With the Compression integration, you can compress and extract your files quickly and easily.
Data compression is the process of encoding, restructuring, or otherwise modifying data to reduce its size. Fundamentally, it involves re-encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. The main advantages of compression are reductions in storage hardware, data transmission time, and communication bandwidth. This can result in significant cost savings. Compressed files require significantly less storage capacity than uncompressed files, meaning a significant decrease in expenses for storage. A compressed file also requires less time for transfer while consuming less network bandwidth. This can also help with costs, and also increases productivity. With the Compression integration, you can take advantage of speedy and secure processing to minimize the impact of intensive compression jobs. For more information, see Automation Hub. |
