How to Configure an Endpoint to Use a Web Services PUPM SDK Application

You can use the Web Services PUPM SDK to write Java applications that check out and check in privileged account passwords. Because the application communicates directly with the Enterprise Management Server, you do not need to install CA Access Control on the endpoint on which the application runs.

Install the following components on the endpoint to use the Web Services PUPM SDK:

Important! We recommend that you use a strong authentication protocol such as NTLM to authenticate the connection between the application and the Enterprise Management Server.

To configure an endpoint to use a Web Services PUPM SDK, do the following:

  1. Review the Web Services PUPM SDK readme.

    The readme contains instructions on how to configure the environment, build the Java samples, and run the Java samples. The readme is located at:

    ACServerInstallDir/IAM Suite/Access Control/tools/samples/webservice/Axis
    
  2. Use the Java samples to write your SDK application.

    You have configured the endpoint to use a Web Services PUPM SDK application. You must now create a user that represents the application in CA Access Control Enterprise Management and assign the user the appropriate privileged access roles.
