Control-M Process

 

The Control-M processes :

SU: The Supervisor (p_ctmsu) performs heartbeat monitoring of all processes Before start of New Day, it suspends all the processes and then to itself

SL: The Selector (p_ctmsl) Makes a selection loop to determine which job will be submitted for the execution to the OS Performs partial jobs post-processing actions Frees all resources occupied by jobs

NS: The Network Server (p_ctmns) Manage the communication to all Control-M/Agents When a message arrives from the Agent, NS sends a trigger to a process that will handle the request Updates the Agent status file and notifies TR, SL, CD and CS processes by sending triggers

TR: The Tracker (p_ctmtr) Updates jobs state when informed by the agent Performs late execution shouts and DO STMT

CO: Communication Gateway (p_ctmco) It handles two types requests- one from CD like Download and other from Control-M/EM, to be handled by CS like order, view It analyzes requests and sends them to the appropriate destination

CS: Communication Service (p_ctmcs) All requests to the CS pass through the CO process Handles the requests that comes from Control-M/EM Multiple number of CS processes can be set

RT: Communication Router (p_ctmrt) Manage the communication messages between all processes Responsible for the messages to arrive in the correct order

WD: The Watchdog (p_ctmwd) Monitors essential Control-M processes, resources and sends an appropriate alert when there is a problem WD checks all the primary Control-M processes are functioning

LG: The Logger Process

CD: Communication Download Process (p_ctmcd) CD process checks if the New Day Time has arrived It sends a message to SU to suspend all Control-M processes and the “STOP LINK” message to Control-M/EM CD updates the IOALOG about New-Day Beginning and updates a Date in the Control-M server database [showmyads] It sends the New Day message to all available agents for cleanup purpose It cleans the jobs from Active Job File, log messages and statistics information It orders jobs upon their scheduling criteria to the AJF Once New day is completed, it sends the “START LINK” message to Control-M/EM and a message to CO to activate all the Control-M processes.
