UNIX Endpoint Installation Considerations

This section describes items you should consider when installing CA Access Control on UNIX endpoints.

CA Access Control Supported on Linux s390x 64 bit in 32 bit Mode Only

Valid on Linux s390x 64 bit

Currently, CA Access Control is supported on Linux s390x operating system in 32 bit mode only.

AIX 6.1 Requires TL3 or Later for CA Access Control to Start

Valid on AIX 6.1

To load CA Access Control on AIX 6.1, verify that TL3 or later is installed.

Message Queue for Linux390 Requires J2SE Version 5.0

To use Message Queue functionality on Linux s390 and s390x endpoints, verify that J2SE version 5.0 or later is installed on the endpoint. Message Queue functionality lets you send report data to the Report Portal and audit data to CA Enterprise Log Manager.

Note: You may need to configure the java_home configuration setting in the accommon.ini file. For more information, see the Implementation Guide.

Compatibility Library Missing on x86_64bit Linux

By default x86_64 Linux operating systems should not include 32bit compatibility libraries when installed. CA Access Control endpoint requires that the library libstdc++.so.6 exists under the usr/lib directory from rpm libstdc++.

Verify that this library exists on the endpoint before you install CA Access Control.

CA Access Control Installation and Uninstallation Restarts UNAB

When CA Access Control is installed or uninstalled from an endpoint that UNAB is running on, the UNAB agent, uxauthd, is stopped and started.

Propagating CA Access Control and UNAB to a New Solaris Zone

When you setup a new Solaris zone, you must complete several post installation steps before the native operating system completely propagate and run the post installation part of the package and you can propagate CA Access Control and UNAB to the new zone.

Note: For more information on setting up a new zone correctly, see Sun's System Administration Guide: Solaris Containers--Resource Management and Solaris Zones, which is available at the Sun Microsystems Documentation website.
