Cisco Cisco Workload Automation 6.3 User Guide

Configuring the Hive Adapter

Securing the Adapter

Create the license file:

For a Permanent license, rename your Permanent license file to master.lic.

For a Demo license, create a file called demo.lic, then type the demo code into the demo.lic file.

Place the file in the 

 directory.

Restart the master:

Windows:

Click 

 in the Service Control Manager. 

UNIX:

Enter 

The master will read and apply the license when it starts.

To validate that the license was applied, select 

 from 

 main menu. 

Securing the Adapter

There are two types of users associated with the Hive Adapter; 

 and 

. Although all 

connections to the Hive Server are anonymous, Cisco Workload Automation's job model requires at least one Hive user 
be defined. You maintain definitions for both types of users from the 

 pane.



Hive Server connections are anonymous, but Cisco Workload Automation's job model requires at least one Hive 
runtime user. Therefore when defining the Hive runtime user, the password can be of any value as it is being used 
at runtime. 



Schedulers are those users who will define and/or manage Hive jobs. There are three aspects of a user profile that 
grant and/or limit access to scheduling jobs that affect Hive:

Security policy that grants or denies add, edit, delete and view capabilities for Hive jobs and events.

Authorized runtime user list that grants or denies access to specific authentication accounts for use with Hive 
jobs.

Authorized agent list that grants or denies access to specific Hive Adapter connections for use when defining 
Hive jobs.

Defining Runtime Users

From the 

 pane, expand the 

 node and select 

 to display the defined 

users.

Right-click 

 and select 

 from the context menu (Insert mode).

-or-

Click the 

 button on the menu bar.

The 

dialog displays.
