CA Datacom/AD and Program Control

You need program control on the shared objects that are specifically loaded in CA Chorus Application Server. Add the program control attribute to ensure that the program is trusted for server activities.

Important! Complete this procedure after you apply any CA Datacom/AD server for USS maintenance.

Follow these steps:

  1. Change the directory to DBSRV_HOME/lib:
    cd <DBSRV_HOME> /lib
    
  2. Add program control:
    extattr +p CADCDB64 CADCJDBC libcadcdb64.so cadcjdbc.jar
    
  3. List all modules showing their extended attributes:
    ls -lE
    
  4. Ensure that the p (that is, program controlled) attribute appears on the applicable files.

Example

# cd /<site-specific path>/datacom/lib 
# ls -lE CADCDB64 CADCJDBC libcadcdb64.so cadcjdbc.jar
