Control-M for GCP Functions

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Functions enables you to develop, test, and run applications in the cloud.

Control-M for GCP Functions enables you to do the following:

• Execute GCP Functions jobs and pass URL or body parameters to the functions.

• Manage GCP Functions credentials in a secure connection profile.

• Connect to any GCP Functions endpoint.

• Introduce all Control-M capabilities to Control-M for GCP Functions, including advanced scheduling criteria, complex dependencies, Resource Pools, Lock Resources, and variables.

• Integrate GCP Functions jobs with other Control-M jobs into a single scheduling environment.

• Monitor the status, results, and output of GCP Functions jobs.

• Attach an SLA job to the GCP Functions jobs.

This procedure describes how to deploy the GCP Functions plug-in, create a connection profile, and define a GCP Functions job in Control-M SaaS and Automation API.

Before You Begin

• Verify that Automation API is installed, as described in Setting Up the API.

• Verify that Agent version 9.0.21.080 or later is installed.

1. On the Agent host, run one of the following commands to set the Java environment variable:

   • Linux:

     • Bourne shell/bash: export BMC_INST_JAVA_HOME=<java_11_directory>

     • csh/tcsh: setenv BMC_INST_JAVA_HOME <java_11_directory>

   • Windows: set BMC_INST_JAVA_HOME="<java_11_directory>"

2. Run one of the following API commands:

   • To install, type one of the following provision image commands:

     • Linux: ctm provision image GCP_Functions_plugin.Linux

     • Windows: ctm provision image GCP_Functions_plugin.Windows

   • To upgrade, type the following command:

     ctm provision agent::update

3. Create a GCP Functions connection profile in Control-M SaaS or Automation API, as follows:

   • Control-M SaaS: Create a Centralized Connection Profile with GCP Functions Connection Profile Parameters

   • Automation API: ConnectionProfile:GCP Functions

4. Define a GCP Functions job in Control-M SaaS or Automation API, as follows:

   • Control-M SaaS: Create a Job with GCP Functions Job parameters

   • Automation API: Job:GCP Functions
