Event Server
Dual Event Server
Dual event server is nothing but having two events servers like we can configure see a workload automation AE instance to run using Servers and this configuration is called dual event server.
Two servers are synchronized to maintain identical data and this data is use when one event server is down
Application Server :
The application server acts as the communication interface between the event server and the client utilities.
It receives requests from the client utilities, queries the event server, and returns the responses to the client utilities.
Scheduler :
When you start the scheduler, it continually scans the database for events to process.
High Avaialability
-
Agent
- agentwill allow us to automate monitor and manage workload on different operating environments
-
Client
- It will include command-line interfaces such as jil job information language auto
- Web Server
- Web server is used to host the web services
