You can define your job flows in the Planning domain of Control-M according to your site flows, priorities, and other criteria. You can set up a Workspace, and define job processing definitions which Control-M uses to control job processing and handling, as described in the following topics:
Setting up a Workspace: Define and review your job flow by working in a Workspace by doing one of the following:
Create a new job flow: You can create a new job flow, by selecting blank Workspace.
Continue working on a job flow: You can continue working on a job flow by selecting a Workspace that you or a colleague previously set up.
Load existing jobs: You can load existing jobs and folders or load a copy of existing jobs and folders.
Design your flows in the Workspaces: After you set up your Workspace, you can implement the job design in the Workspace. You can check out and edit the Workspace, and save the Workspace to a Central repository. You can continue working on a saved copy of the checked out Workspace, even if you close it. To commit the changes, you can check in the Workspace, so that the jobs are eligible for ordering. For information on Workspace management, see Workspace management.
Job definition: You can design the job flows or make modifications to the existing jobs using Control-M. This includes defining resources, global conditions, and setting up automated job scheduling.
Handle a Request Workspace: For Control-M Workload Change Manager users, you can receive, own, and handle requests.
Navigate in the Planning domain: You can find what you need in the Planning domain to enable you to create job processing definitions, change the view of the jobs, and use Planning tools. You can also perform several tasks to transition your definitions to production. After job processing definitions have been defined for your production jobs, you can perform several tasks to transition your definitions to production.
