CA Access Control Enterprise Management and CA Access Control Enhancements

The following CA Access Control Enterprise Management and CA Access Control enhancements and fixes were made since the last release:

• Load Balancing Enterprise Management Server

  Load Balancing Enterprise Management Server has been added to CA Access Control to manage environments where heavy transactions take place. The Load Balancing Enterprise Management Servers enable CA Access Control customers to use a common user and policy stores to distribute workload among the Enterprise Management Servers.

• LDAP Network Groups Support

  Added support for netgroup over LDAP to enable CA Access Control policy to allow using netgroups for policy evaluation.

  Note: User netgroups are mapped into the user XGROUPS. CA Access Control does not connect to the users directory, rather CA Access Control uses the native OS LDAP to retrieve netgroups information.

• Policy Management over Message Queue

  An alternative JMS (Java Messaging Service) protocol is now available which enables better policy distribution for large CA Access Control end point environments.

• Memory Monitoring

  Added memory monitoring capability to monitor the daemons memory consumption. Use the command secons -i to display the current memory use.

• Crash Guard

  Added a process on CA Access Control for Windows to collect support-related files after a system malfunction occurred.
