Subscribe a DH to a DMS

When you create a new DH, you must subscribe it to the DMS.

If you are upgrading from r12.0 SP1, once you have completed upgrading CA Access Control Enterprise Management components, you cannot continue working with the previous DMS. You must configure the upgraded DH to work with the new DMS before starting CA Access Control Enterprise Management.

Important! If you are upgrading from r12.0 SP1, complete this step only if you installed the Distribution Server on the Report Server computer.

To subscribe a DH to a DMS

1. Open a command prompt window on the Distribution Server.
2. Subscribe the new DMS with the Distribution Host.

   Example: sepmd -s DH__WRITER DMS__@<entm>

3. Add the new DMS as the Distribution Host parent.

   Example: sepmd -s DMS__ DH__@<host_name>

4. On the Enterprise Management Server, open a command prompt window and create a new subscriber.

   Example: sepmd -n DH__@<host_name>

   Note: For more information about the sepmd utility, see the Reference Guide.
