CA Access Control Kernel Loader Exits

UNIX exits are called whenever the CA Access Control kernel is being loaded or unloaded (SEOS_load). This lets you define how you want to handle operating system and third-party programs when loading or unloading the CA Access Control kernel. For example, you can use kernel-unloading UNIX exits to automatically stop, and later restart, processes that prevent CA Access Control from unloading when running SEOS_load -u.

For some operating systems, CA Access Control comes with some kernel load exits, kernel unload exits, or both out of the box.

Note: For more information about identifying processes that prevent CA Access Control kernel from unloading, see the secons utility in the Reference Guide.
