Cannot run workflows if the PS1 environment variable is
altered
Cause
When running scriptlets in Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator, the system will expect
that the command prompt ends in $ or # . The PS1 environment variable governs
what your prompt looks like. If you change this variable on your managed-to or
managed-from system, you might run into problems running workflows.
For example, on most UNIX systems, when you are logged in as tioadmin , by
default, you see the following command prompt:
$
If you change the PS1 variable for tioadmin to be tioadmin> , then you will see the
following as the command prompt:
tioadmin>
Solution
To be able to run scriptlets in Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator, ensure that the
command prompt ends in $ or # .
Here are examples of acceptable command prompts:
command$
$
#
command#
