Environment

Release : All releases of Workload Automation AE
Component : CA Workload Automation AE

Cause

The AutoSys environment has not been sourced. Thus, required libraries and paths are not defined and are preventing successful command execution.

Resolution

In order to be able to execute AutoSys commands on any machine, the AutoSys environment must be sourced! 
Sourcing the environment is as easy as updating your logon profile on the Unix server to read in the AutoSys environment profile located in $AUTOUSER on your UNIX server.

The $AUTOUSER environment variable will vary in your environment. By default this location is set to /opt/CA/WorkloadAutomationAE/autouser.$AUTOSERV (where $AUTOSERV is the 3 character instance identifier).

Below is an example of the 4 environment profiles that will be present on the server. The files on your server will have your hostname appended to the filename.
autosys.csh.aixdb2de12
autosys.env.aixdb2de12
autosys.ksh.aixdb2de12
autosys.sh.aixdb2de12

You will need to source one of these in your user profile in order to be able to execute AutoSys commands.

  1. Open your user profile for editing using your choice of editors.
  2. Go to the bottom of your profile and add the line (including the preceding period): . /opt/CA/WorkloadAutomationAE/autouser.SAB/autosys.sh.aixdb2de12
  3. Save the file.
  4. Launch another terminal session and login back in.
  5. You should now be able to execute the AutoSys commands

Note: You will need to speak with your System Administrator to determine which of the 4 profiles to source for your environment.
