Enable or Disable the Creation of XUSER Records at Enterprise User Login

If CA ControlMinder is enabled to use enterprise users, by default it creates a record (in the XUSER class) for a user when that user logs in. Sometimes you do not want this, for example, if thousands of users log on at the same time each day.

To prevent CA ControlMinder creating XUSER records when users log in, change the value of the configuration setting create_user_in_db to 0 (zero). To re-enable this behavior set the value to 1 (one).

Example: Disable the Automatic Creation of XUSER Records on Enterprise User Login on Windows

The following registry setting disables the automatic creation of an enterprise user record in CA ControlMinder on Windows:

Example: Disable the Automatic Creation of XUSER Records on Enterprise User Login on UNIX
