Configure an Existing Windows Endpoint for CA User Activity Reporting Integration

Once you have CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installed and configured, you can configure your endpoints for sending audit data to the Distribution Server by enabling and configuring the Report Agent.

Note: When you install CA ControlMinder, it lets you configure the endpoint for collecting and sending audit data. This procedure illustrates how you configure an existing endpoint for sending audit data if you did not configure this option at install time.

To configure an existing Windows endpoint for CA User Activity Reporting integration

1. Click Start, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs.

   The Add or Remove Program dialog appears.

2. Scroll through the program list and select CA ControlMinder.
3. Click Change.

   The CA ControlMinder installation wizard appears.

   Follow the wizard prompts to modify the CA ControlMinder installation so that you enable the Report Agent feature and the Audit Routing sub-feature.

   Verify that you also specify to keep time-stamped backups of the audit log file.

Note: After you enable the Report Agent and audit routing, you can modify CA ControlMinder configuration settings to change performance-related settings. Before you do this, you should understand how the Report Agent collects audit events and routes them to the Distribution Server. For more information about Report Agent configuration settings, see the Reference Guide.
