Methods for Centrally Managing Policies
CA ControlMinder lets you manage several databases from a single computer in the following ways:
- Automatic rule-based policy updates—Regular rules you define in a central database (PMDB) are automatically propagated to databases in a configured hierarchy.
Note: Dual control is only available with this method and on UNIX only. Information about dual control for automatic rule-based policy updates is found in the Endpoint Administration Guide for UNIX. Information about automatic rule-based policy updates can also be found in the Endpoint Administration Guide for Windows.
- Advanced policy management—Policies (groups of rules) you deploy are propagated to all databases based on host or host group assignment. You can also undeploy (remove) policies and view deployment status and deployment deviation. You need to install and configure additional components to use this functionality.
Note: Information about advanced policy management is found in the Enterprise Administration Guide.
