Installation of Autosys Components In Different Geographic Location

Products

• CA Workload Automation AE - Business Agents (AutoSys)
• CA Workload Automation AE - Scheduler (AutoSys)
• Workload Automation Agent

Issue/Introduction

There might be a business need of placing Scheduler, DB, App Server and Agents in different Geographic location, Is it possible to have these components in different Geo-locations?

Can I place Scheduler, DB, App Server and Agents in different Geographic location? If yes, what would be the impact?

Environment

All Supported Version of WAAE.

Resolution

You can have your Scheduler, App Server DB and Agent any location but the DB Scheduler and App server timezone have to be in sync. When you have these installed in different location you have to consider the network traffic time it will take to make calls to system X and for it to reply.
