Converting PeopleSoft Option Jobs to Control-M for PeopleSoft jobs

This procedure explains how to convert PeopleSoft Option Jobs to Control-M for PeopleSoft Jobs.

This procedure is only available from the DVD.

Before You Begin

Ensure the following:

• You have installed Java JRE 1.5 or later
• Control-M/Enterprise Manager Server for Windows or Client is installed
• You have downloaded Control-M Table to Control-M/Enterprise Manager

To Convert PeopleSoft Option Jobs to Control-M for PeopleSoft Jobs:

1. Log in to Control-M Enterprise Manager Server or Client.
2. Create a temporary directory C:\PS_OPTION on your computer.
3. Mount the installation DVD.
4. Copy the following files to C:\PS_OPTION folder:
   • All files from <DVD_Root>\Conversion folder
   • <Control-M/Enterprise Manager home>\<instance>\Data\Resource\defjob.dtd
   • <Control-M/Enterprise Manager home>\<instance>\Data\Resource\deftable.dtd
5. Create a new directory C:\PS_OPTION\ENVFILES
6. Copy all existing Control-M Option for PeopleSoft ENV files to the new directory referred to in step 5.
7. Navigate to <Control-M/Enterprise Manager home>\<instance>\bin directory.
8. Execute one of the following utilities to export the Control-M Option for PeopleSoft to an output file:
   • ExportDefJob.exe
   • ExportDeftable.exe

   The OUT_FILE should be set relative to the C:\PS_OPTION folder created in step 2.

9. Navigate to the temporary folder created in step 2 and execute the following command:

   ctmpsconvert <exported job def file> <converted output file name> <path to ENV files>

   The ctmpsconvert execution screen appears and ctmpsconvert log file ConvertJobs.log is created in the current executing directory.

   Assuming the exported output file resides in C:\PS_OPTION\LegacyJobDef.txt and the directory where the ENV files are stored is C:\PS_OPTION\ENVFILES, the ctmpsconvert execution command should be as follows:

   ctmpsconvert C:\PS_OPTION\LegacyJobDef.txt convertedJobDEF.txt C:\PS_OPTION\ENVFILES

   The output appears as follows:

   Convert Jobs Utility begins 11/30/10 15:28:03:405

   Total jobs = 1

   Total converted jobs = 1

   Convert Jobs Utility ends 11/30/10 15:28:03:535

10. Import the converted job definitions from the <converted output file name> by navigating to the <Control-M/Enterprise Manager home>\<instance>\bin directory and executing the defjob or deftable utility. See Control-M Workload Automation Utilities for more information.

    The Connection Profile field in the PeopleSoft job is set according to the ENV file as <hostname>_<port>_<user>

    Ensure that the names for Connection Profiles in Control-M for PeopleSoft match the names in the ENV file.
