Installing IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler software

---

Installation of the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler software (Version 8.1) at this time must be done on all nodes in the cluster, which means that if there are two nodes in the cluster, then two IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler installations must occur.

Note 

You must complete the maestro user and Tivoli group before starting the installation of the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler software. The actual software installation can be done following the creation of the user and group on a single machine, or you can create the user and group on all nodes first, and then cycle around to install the software again (requiring you to issue the umount, varyoffvg/varonvg and mount commands).

Patching the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler configuration

Patching the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler engine (on both the master and the FTAs) is highly recommended. The method for deploying the patch will vary among customers; some will patch manually, while others may use a software distribution mechanism.

Note 

It is advised that the patching of the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler Master be done manually, because the IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler Administration staff has access to the machine and you need to be very careful about the procedures that are performed, especially when dealing with the added complexities that the HACMP environment introduces.
