Database Configuration

Before installing, set up a database used for storing user information, server configuration data, audit log data, and other information.

CA Risk Authentication supports a primary database and a backup database that can be used during failover and fail-back in high-availability deployments. Configure the database connectivity in the following ways:

During CA Risk Authentication installation, the database is configured, when the installer automatically edits the arcotcommon.ini file with the database information you supply.

There are specific configuration requirements for each supported database (Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or MySQL).

Important! To protect the database server, use a firewall or any other access control mechanism and set to the same time-zone as all dependent products.
