The Output tab is objectAutomation Engine controlled activities and processes are structured in the form of objects. See also: Task-specific and is only available in "Job" objects that use the hostComputer, target system. types Windows, UNIX, SAP, RA, JMX or SQL. In this tab, you can enter files that are generated by the jobAn Automation Engine object type for a process that runs on a target system.. After the job has been executed, you can directly access these files via the UserInterfaceThis is the Automation Engine's graphical user interface. [Formerly called the "Rich Client", "RichGUI" and "Dialog Client."].
Files that are specified in this tab are registeredThis is the status of a task that runs within a group and is waiting for its start. as external job outputs. After the job has been executed, these files are listed in the Directory tab of the reportA report provides more detailed information about a task's execution or a component. dialog in which they can be directly accessed. Automic recommends only specifying files that are expected through execution of the job (such as a text file that the JCL generates in the Process tab).
The files are retrieved directly by the responsible agentA program that enables the de-centralized execution of processes (such as deployments) on target systems (computers or business solutions) or a service that provides connectivity to a target system (such as for databases or middleware). An agent is also an object type in the Automation Engine. [Formerly called "Executor."] See also: host and must therefore be accessible to it. An error occurs if the agent cannot find a file or if the file cannot be accessed.
Standard job outputs (report, JCL etc.) are automatically registered as outputs.
You can also register output files by using the scriptA particular Automation Engine object type. element :REGISTER_OUTPUTFILE. This is only supported for Windows and UNIX jobs.

When the agent accesses the output file via the UserInterface, it logs on to the computer and transfers the file. If you check this option, the Login object that has been assigned to the particular AE userIn the Automation Engine, a user is an instance of a User object, and generally the user is a specific person who works with Automic products. The User object is assigned a user ID and then a set of access rights to various parts of the Automation Engine system and product suite. These access rights come in the form of Automation Engine authorizations and privileges, Decision user roles and EventBase rights and ARA web application object rights. You can manage all these centrally in the ECC user management functions. See also, Unified user management. (User tab - default loginAn Automation Engine object type that stores account credentials used by agents on target systems.) is used. Otherwise, the login information of the job's Login object is used. With this option activated, a default login that can be used to log on to the agent must be selected in the User object. Otherwise, an error occurs when you open the output file. |
