Control-m Agent Behind a firewall

Post by JohanD » 08 Apr 2015 10:14

Hi,

i have my control-m agent behind a firewall.
ag_diag_comm gives error that the unix ping to server platform failed.

ctm_diag_comm from the control-m server is successful, but doesnt return an IP.

if i run a job as control-m agent user, it runs finr (ran a command line ls, hostname etc) and i can view the output.

but if i run some commands by any other user, it fails, but doesnt show the output.

any ideas what need to be changed.

Diagnostic tests should clearly resolve else it is communication issue and needs to be addressed in first place.

Is agent-server(7006) port opened on firewall?
Is the agent communication set to transient or persistent mode?

Thanks

there was an issue with how the user was configured.
bin/bash was not enable.

the job ran successfully after the user settings were corrected.

-- FYI - the ag_diag_comm still shows the unix ping to server platfrom failed
but this doesn't cause any issues currently .


Regards ,

Johan
