Configuring Tivoli System Automation to automate or to manage resources involves the following basic steps:
| Creating a Tivoli System Automation Domain
|

| Creating a resource group
|
|
| Creating resources
|
|
| Adding resources to resource group
|
|
| Creating equivalencies (typically used for IP address resources)
|
|
| Specifying dependencies
|
In order to create a new resource of the Application resource class (for example, for the Deployment Manager), the following three scripts (or commands respectively) must be provided:
| 1.
| A start script (or command) to bring the resource online.
|
| 2.
| A stop script (or command) to take the resource offline.
|
| 3.
| A script (or command) to monitor the resource through polling.
|
For details on how to develop these scripts, refer to IBM Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms Guide and Reference.
