CA User Activity Reporting Module Integration Architecture

Integration with CA User Activity Reporting Module lets you collect audit events from each of your managed devices for reporting by CA User Activity Reporting Module.

You can configure each manage device to collect audit events to the audit file on the local machine. You can then configure a CA User Activity Reporting Module to pull events (messages) from it. CA User Activity Reporting Module processes these events and sends them to the CA User Activity Reporting Module server.

The CA Access Control for Virtual Environments installation supports CA User Activity Reporting Module integration.

The following diagram shows the architecture of CA User Activity Reporting Module integration components:

The preceding diagram illustrates the following:

• Each managed device collects audit data to local files
• CA User Activity Reporting Module pulls the audit records from the managed devices when an audit collection policy is applied
• CA User Activity Reporting Module collects audit records on administrative actions you do in CA Access Control for Virtual Environments
• CA User Activity Reporting Module collects audit records from the VMware vCenter Server and the hypervisor

Note: CA User Activity Reporting Module integration relies on reporting service components. As such, your architecture includes other reporting service components and features that are not used for CA User Activity Reporting Module integration. These components and features are dimmed in the diagram.
