Set up workspaces for Distributed Execution without AOS
To use Distributed Execution without AOS (Automation Object Service), you need to set up separate multi-user workspaces for each instance of Tosca Commander and for each Tosca Distribution Agent.
To do so, follow the steps below:
-
On each machine from which you want to trigger executions with Tosca Commander, create a separate multi-user workspace which has access to the common repository.
-
For each Tosca Distribution Agent, create a separate multi-user workspace which has access to the common repository, and configure the agent to use this workspace.
You can configure an agent to use a workspace in one of the following ways:
-
Use the ToscaDistributionAgent Configuration window on the Tosca Distribution Agent machine.
-
Use the Distributed Execution Monitor on the Tosca Distribution Server machine.
If you start your agent with the command line interface (CLI), you cannot configure it with the ToscaDistributionAgent Configuration window. You can only configure the agent using the Distributed Execution Monitor. |
