Issue/Introduction

Resolution

Often WCC validation issues stem from the agent's inability to authenticate the monitor id.  

  • Review the agent's spool sub-directories for application server communication.  
  • A common problem is chkusr failures which will be seen in the logs.  
  • Review the agentparm.txt on the application server host for invalid or extra pam settings.  
  • Changes to the agentparm.txt file require a restart of the agent to take effect.

Sample spool directory location: /opt/CA/WorkloadAutomationAE/SystemAgent/WA_AGENT/spool/ACE_APP_host1/MAIN/WAAE_WF0.1

As a test run the chkusr command as seen in the files in the spool directory which show the failure.

  • If they fail from a command line as well then consider changing the oscomponent.auth.pam.svc= value.  
  • If the command succeeds from a command line, look for a setting of pam.lib in the agentparm.txt file, comment it out and restart the agent.

Another reason is to ensure if autosys is setup with EEM security, then WCC's autosys configuration should have the EEM Enabled option ON.   If autosys is setup with native security, EEM Enabled option should be turned off.  Save and re-validate again in WCC.
