Connecting an on-prem fault tolerant agent to an HCL Workload Automation Server container

To establish a communication between an on-prem fault tolerant agent and an HCL Workload Automation server container, configure the server docker-compose.yml file as follows:
  1. Open all external ports as shown in the example below:
    ports (port mapping "external:internal"):  
              - 31116:31116 #HTTPS server port
              - 31111:31111 #HTTP netman port
              - 33113:33113 #HTTPS netman ssl port
              - 31131:31131 #HTTP EIF port
              - 35131:35131 #HTTPS EIF ssl port
  2. Add the extra_hosts parameter under hostname, and insert all remote machine hostnames that docker must contact (including the one of the on-prem FTA).
    hostname: wa-server
             extra_hosts:
             - hostname1:IP_Address
             - hostname2:IP_Address
             - hostname3:IP_Address           
             ...
Furthermore, in the /etc/hosts file on the remote machine where the on-prem FTA is running, add the hostname of the HCL Workload Automation server container.
IP_Address    hostname
Note: You can find the hostname of the HCL Workload Automation server container in the server docker-compose.yml file.
