Sample Configuration for Policy Administration

The following diagram shows a sample configuration for enterprise policy administration:

This diagram shows a sample enterprise policy administration configuration whereby three LPARs with three separate External Security Managers share the same policy file. This policy information is sent to LDAP and then JBoss.

This diagram shows a sample configuration for enterprise policy administration with the CA Chorus UI and policy database running on LPAR B. The following processing occurs:

The CA LDAP Server on LPAR B performs policy administration against the shared policy database that it provides to the UI. The policy database contains the tables CA LDAP Server queries when summary reports are run through the Policy Administration UI. The shared policy database communicates with the Router and Warehouse components to obtain data from your external security manager. CA LDAP Server performs policy administration against the policy file.
LPAR A and C provide data to the shared policy database through your external security manager, router, and warehouse or logger. The data is also provided to the CA Compliance Manager repository or the log stream.
