New Documentation

   

Control-M Automation API Documentation has moved to a new location, with a new design to enhance ease of use.

Connection Profiles

Connection profiles are used to define access methods and security credentials for a specific application. They can be referenced by multiple jobs. To do this, you must deploy the connection profile definition before running the relevant jobs. 

Note: For most types of connection profiles (except for File Transfer connection profiles), the name of the connection profile can contain only the following types of characters: uppercase letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. The connection profile name can contain up to 30 characters.

ConnectionProfile:Hadoop

These examples show how to use connection profiles for the various types of Hadoop jobs.

Hadoop (all types)

These are the required parameters for all Hadoop job types.

{
  "HADOOP_CONNECTION_PROFILE":
  {
    "Type" : "ConnectionProfile:Hadoop",
    "TargetAgent" : "edgenode",
    "TargetCTM" : "CTMHost"
  }
}
ParameterDescription
TargetAgentThe Control-M/Agent to which to deploy the connection profile.
TargetCTMThe Control-M/Server to which to deploy the connection profile. If there is only one Control-M/Server, that is the default.

 These are the optional parameters for defining the user running the Hadoop job types and choosing between a local or centralized connection profile.

{
  "HADOOP_CONNECTION_PROFILE":
  {
    "Type" : "ConnectionProfile:Hadoop",
    "TargetAgent" : "edgenode",
	"TargetCTM" : "CTMHost",
    "RunAs": "",
    "KeyTabPath":"",
    "Centralized":true
  }
}
RunAs

Defines the user of the account on which to run Hadoop jobs.

Leave this field empty to run Hadoop jobs using the user account where the agent was installed.

The Control-M/Agent must run as root, if you define a specific RunAs user.

Centralized

9.0.20.000 Whether to create the connection profile as a centralized connection profile that is stored in the Control-M database and is available to all Control-M/Agents (version 9.0.20 or later).

Either true or false. The default is false, that is, the connection profile is created as a local connection profile that is associated with a specific agent and is stored on that agent.

In the case of Kerberos security, the following parameters control security:

RunAs

Principal name of the user

KeyTabPathKeytab file path for the target user

Apache Spark

The following example shows a connection profile that defines access to a Spark server.

ConnectionProfile:FileTransfer 

Connection profiles for File Transfers are available for the following types of target servers and communication protocols:

For FTP, SFTP, FTPS, and Local filesystem transfers, you can choose between the following types of connection profiles, depending on the number of hosts for which the connection profile contains connection details:

  • Single endpoint: Each connection profile contains the connection details of a single host. Such a connection profile can be used for either the source host or the destination host in a file transfer.
  • Dual endpoint: The connection profile contains connection details of two hosts, both the source host and the destination host, in a file transfer.

You can also create group connection profiles for file transfers, which enable you to transfer a file from one host to multiple hosts in one transfer. In each group connection profile, you include a variety of previously defined connection profiles for file transfers.
