System Configuration

System Configuration contains the following topics:

• New Day Procedure: Cleans the Control-M/Server logs, job information, and Agent output; removes old jobs and loads new ones, and downloads the environment to the Control-M/EM database at a predefined time every day.

• Time Zone: Configure the time zone where jobs run, and manage Daylight Savings Time (DST).

• Control-M Communication Behind a Firewall: Connect to Control-M components that are behind a firewall, which enables you to safely bypass the security software that restricts access to these components from outside network devices.

• Control-M/Server-Agent Communication:  Configure a persistent connection between a Control-M/Server and an Agent.

• SSO Authentication for Control-M Clients: Configure Single Sign On (SSO) authentication for a Control-M client and the CCM.

• Email Server Configuration: Authenticate and connect Control-M components to email servers via Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Secure (SMTPS), which ensures data integrity and confidentiality.

• Control-M Mobile: Distribute the Control-M Mobile app to users in your organization.

• Load Balancer Configuration: Connect and configure a load balancer for Control-M/EM, which enables you to provide continuous availability between Control-M Web and the Control-M Web Server.

• WCM Integration with a Change Management System: Integrate Workload Change Manager (WCM) with a change management system, which enables you to send requests via WCM.

• Application Performance Monitoring Tools Configuration: Configure the communication from Control-M to an Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tool, such as AppDynamics, Dynatrace, or Datadog, which enables you to monitor Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server Java processes and services.

• Database Operation and Maintenance: Access and configure the Control-M/EM and Control-M/Server databases.

• User Exits: Create user exits, which enable you to modify job information that Control-M writes to a text file before the job runs.

• Configuring Agent System Parameters: Access and configure Agent system parameters.

• Control-M/EM Utilities: Manage and configure Control-M/EM from the command line.

• Control-M/Server Utilities: Manage and configure Control-M/Server from the command line.

• Control-M Automation API Administration: Manage and configure Control-M Automation API.
