UUJMA Agent Identification on Mainframe and Distributed Servers

Products

• Unicenter Job Management Option

Issue/Introduction

Support teams often need to determine the default naming conventions and configuration locations for Unicenter Job Management Option (UUJMA) agents across diverse environments. This guide provides the specific steps to identify agent names for CA 7 Workload Automation on z/OS Mainframe and various Distributed (Server) platforms, including Windows and Unix/Linux. Locating these names is critical for workload scheduling, troubleshooting communication failures, and verifying agent connectivity via CCI (Common Communications Interface).

Resolution

On the Mainframe side (specifically within CA 7), default values are typically defined in the initialization file. On the Distributed side, the agent name is generally associated with the system hostname and configuration files within the UUJMA installation directory.

To locate the agent names in both environments, follow the steps below:

**Distributed (Server) Side:**

1. Navigate to the UUJMA installation directory:

   * Unix/Linux: `/opt/CA/SharedComponents/ccs/cci/config/hostname/`
   * Windows: `C:\Program Files\CA_APPSW\`

2. Within this path, locate the `cci` subdirectory and review the `ccirmtd.rc` or `ccirmtd.prf` files. These files contain the hostname used for agent communication.

**Mainframe (CA 7) Side:**

1. Take a look at the CCITCPGW task; it should list all the agents connected

2. Review the CA 7 initialization (INIT) file for default settings.

3. If you know a current running job, you can check it via the DB.10 panel. The associated agent will be listed in the **XP Node** field.
