Importing and configuring the job stream

To start using the job duration predictor system, a job stream must be added: you can import it with the workload application template (WAT) or create it manually through the user interface.

• Workload Application Template (WAT)

  The workload application template is provided as a zip file. You must unpack the workload application template from the zip file and import it to the master domain manager of your network as a job stream. The job stream contains the job predictor and job trainer instances already configured. By importing the WAT you must configure the name of the job stream, the name of the job predictor and job trainer, and the workstation where the agent with the machine learning engine is running.

• Manually add a new job stream

  Create a new job stream definition. For more information, see Creating job stream definitions.

  Define the workstation where the agent with the machine learning engine is running.

  Add the Job duration trainer instance and then add the Job duration predictor instance. For more information about adding a job, see Adding a job to a job stream.

Once the job stream definition has been created/imported and configured, define when scheduling the job duration predictor and the job duration trainer. It is suggested to schedule the job duration predictor accordingly to the runs of the job to be analyzed.
