Installing and configuring the access methods

The access methods documented in this guide are packaged with IBM Workload Scheduler and are automatically installed with the product on dynamic and fault-tolerant agents.

Important: In order to be entitled to use the access methods and plug-ins, you must have purchased at least one of the following offerings: IBM Workload Scheduler, IBM Workload Scheduler for Applications, or IBM Z Workload Scheduler Agent. See the 10.2.4 Quick Start Guide available from IBM Fix Central. For information about the supported versions of the plug-ins and access methods, open the Data Integration report and select the Supported Software tab.
For details about installing an IBM Workload Scheduler dynamic or fault-tolerant agent, see IBM® Workload Scheduler Planning and Installation.

To use any of the access methods on supported agents, you create an options file, which configures the access method and defines the workstation and the jobs that extend the scheduling capability to external systems or applications.
