Testing a Control-M for Web Services connection profile

This procedure describes how to test a Control-M for Web Services connection profile in the Control-M Configuration Manager, which validates the connection parameters.

To test a Control-M Web Services connection profile:

1. From Control-M Configuration Manager, select Control-M for Web Services, right click and select WS Connection Profile Management.

   The Control-M for Web Services Connection Profile Management dialog box appears.

   NOTE: If the Cannot send parameters to WS CM Extension error message appears, do the following:

   • Open the <Agent>\data\wsprofile.dat and set the WSHOSTNAME to a fully qualified hostname or IP address. This often happens in an environment where the Agent is a multi-homed system.
   • If the problem persists, check if the port number for the WSPORTNUM parameter is not already used by another application on the Agent machine and change if necessary.
2. Select the connection profile that you want to test, and click .

   If the test completes successfully, the connection profile validates and you can now define a Web Services job, as described in Web Services job definition . If the test fails, review the error message(s), fix any problems as necessary, and test it again.
