Install CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management on Windows

Installing CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installs all the Enterprise Management Server components. You must prepare the Enterprise Management Server before you install CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management.

We recommend that you use the Prerequisite Kit installer to initiate the CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installation. Install_PRK.exe installs required third-party software and then starts the CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installation.

Note: You cannot install CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management by network install. Copy the entire contents of the Disk 1 directory of the CA ControlMinder Server Components DVD to your installation directory or map a drive to the DVD instead.

Important! If you install CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management for High Availability, specify the same FIPS key on the primary and secondary Enterprise Management Servers. Specify a custom FIPS key if you install CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management for High Availability with FIPS support.

Follow these steps:

  1. Stop JBoss Application Server if it is running.
  2. Stop CA ControlMinder services if you are installing CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management on a computer that already has CA ControlMinder installed.
  3. Insert the CA ControlMinder Server Components DVD for Windows into your optical disk drive.
  4. Expand the Components folder in the Product Explorer, select CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management, then click Install.
  5. Complete the wizard as required. The following installation inputs are not self-explanatory:
    Select Installation Mode

    Defines the Enterprise Management Server installation mode:

    • Primary Enterprise Management Server—Select to install the primary Enterprise Management Server.
    • Load Balancing Enterprise Management Server—Select to install a Load Balancing Enterprise Management Server.

    Important! Installation mode applies to new installations only.

    Choose Install Folder

    Defines the full path of the installation folder.

    Default: \ProgramFiles\CA\AccessControlServer\

    Note: On 64 bit operating systems the default installation folder is:

    \Program Files(x86)\CA\AccessControlServer\
    

    Important: The product does not support special characters in the installation directory path.

    Java Development Kit (JDK)

    Defines the location of an existing JDK.

    Note: If you launch the CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installation immediately after you use the CA ControlMinder Third Party Component DVDs to install the prerequisite software, this wizard page does not appear. The installation utility configures the installation settings on this page based on the values you provided in the prerequisite software installation process.

    JBoss Application Server Information

    Defines the JBoss instance that you want to install the application on.

    To do this, define the:

    • JBoss folder, which is the top directory where you have JBoss installed.

      For example, C:\jboss-4.2.3.GA on Windows or /opt/jboss-4.2.3.GA on Solaris.

    • URL, which is the IP address or host name of the computer you are installing on.
    • Port JBoss uses.
    • Port JBoss uses for secure communications (HTTPS).
    • Naming port number.

    Note: If you launch the CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management installation immediately after you use the CA ControlMinder Third Party Component DVDs to install the prerequisite software, this wizard page does not appear. The installation utility configures the installation settings on this page based on the values you provided in the prerequisite software installation process.

    Communication Password

    (Primary Enterprise Management Server Only) Defines the password used for CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management Server inter-component communication.

    Note: CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management uses the communication password to manage the Message Queue keystore and administrator account, handle communication between CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management and the endpoints and manage the Java Connection Server.

    Primary Enterprise Management Server Information

    (Load Balancing Enterprise Management Server Only) Defines the Primary Enterprise Management Server host name or IP address and the full pathname to the FIPS key.

    Note: By default, the FIPS key is located in the following path, where JBoss_HOME is the directory where you installed JBoss:

    JBoss_HOME/server/default/deploy/IdentityMinder.ear/config/com/netegrity/config/keys

    Database Information

    Defines the connection details to the RDBMS:

    • Database Type—Specifies a supported RDBMS.
    • Host Name—Defines the name of the host where you have the RDBMS installed.
    • Port Number—Defines the port used by the RDBMS you specified. The installation program provides the default port for your RDBMS.
    • Service Name—(Oracle) Defines the name that identifies your RDBMS on the system. For example, for Oracle Database 10g this is orcl by default.
    • Database Name—(MS SQL) Defines the name of the database you created.
    • Username—Defines the name of the user that you created when you prepared the database.

      Note: You granted this user the appropriate database permissions when you prepared the database.

    • Password—Defines the RDBMS password of the user that you created when you prepared the database.

    The installation program checks the connection to the database before it continues.

    Active Directory Settings

    Defines the Active Directory user store settings:

    • Host—Defines the Domain Controller host name of Active Directory.
    • Port—Defines the port used by default for LDAP queries against Active Directory, for example, 389.
    • Search Root—Defines the search root, for example, ou=DomainName, DC=com.

      Note: Set the Search Root at least one node higher in the directory tree than the Distinguished Names (DNs) for the users specified for User DN and System User. Otherwise, Enterprise Management might launch without displaying any tabs.

    • User DN—Defines the Active Directory user account name that is used to manage CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. For example: CN=Administrator, cn=Users, DC=DomainName, DC=Com.

      Note: This user issues LDAP queries against Active Directory. You can choose to define a user with read-only privileges for this parameter. However, if you define a user with read-only privileges, you cannot assign admin roles or privileged access roles to users in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. Instead, you modify the member policy for each role to point to an Active Directory group.

    • Password—Defines the password of the Active Directory user account that is used to manage CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management.

    The installation program checks the connection to Active Directory before continuing.

    Note: You can use the DSQUERY directory querying utility to discover the user Distinguished Name (User DN). You must run this query on the Active Directory server. For example:

    dsquery user -name administrator
    "CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=lab.DC=demo"
    
    System User

    (Active Directory only) Defines the DN of the Active Directory user who is assigned the System Manager admin role in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management.

    Example: CN=SystemUser, ou=OrganizationalUnit, DC=DomainName, DC=Com

    Note: By default, a user with the System Manager admin role can perform, create, and manage all tasks in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. For more information about the System Manager admin role, see the Enterprise Administration Guide.

    Administrator Password

    (Embedded user store only) Defines the password of superadmin, the CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management administrator. Make a note of the password so you can log in to CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management when the installation is complete.

    Note: In this step you create the superadmin user in the embedded user store. The superadmin user is assigned the System Manager admin role in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. You log in as superadmin the first time you log in to CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. For more information about the System Manager admin role, see the Enterprise Administration Guide.

    FIPS Key Location

    Defines the path to a copy of the original FIPSkey.dat. The FIPS key file ensures that the encrypted database is readable after migration.

    The Enterprise Management Server is installed after you complete the wizard. Reboot the computer to complete the installation.

  6. Select Yes, restart my system and click Done.

    The computer reboots. You can now configure CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management for your enterprise.
