Integration Procedure for EmailXtender

Note: CA DLP can only integrate with EMC EmailXtender version 4.8.263 or later.

Integrating CA DLP with EmailXtender involves the following tasks:

  1. Install the External Agent API.

    First, you need to install the External Agent API on the EMC EmailXtender server. This enables CA DLP to integrate with third party email archives. For integration with EmailXtender, the External Agent API converts archived emails into CA DLP event files and saves them to a shared network folder where they can be accessed by Event Import.

    For External Agent API deployment instructions. In particular, consider the registry edit in step 3 of Install the External Agent API.

  2. Install Event Import.

    This retrieves the extracted emails from the shared network folder specified in step 1 and imports them into the CMS. Full instructions for installing Event Import machines are given in Event Import.

  3. Install the Remote Data Manager (RDM). The example diagram in EMC EmailXtender integration shows the RDM installed on the CMS.

    The RDM enables CA DLP to retrieve events that are archived in third party remote storage locations and display them in the iConsole or Data Management console.

    To install the RDM, run the CA DLP server installation wizard. In the Remote Data Manager Configuration screen, select EMC EmailXtender for Exchange or EMC EmailXtender for Domino from the archive list.

    Important! If you select EMC EmailXtender for Domino, see the EmailXtender post-installation task in EMC SourceOne integration.

  4. Install the 'EmailXtender Connector for Orchestria'.

    Finally, you need to install this connector (ExOConnSetup.exe) on the RDM host machine. This enables the RDM to connect to the EmailExtender server.

    From version 4.8 SP1 onwards, you can find the connector on your EMC distribution media in the \Setup\Windows folder.

    Note: This connector is supplied by EMC and has not been rebranded to reflect the product name change in r12.0 from ‘Orchestria APM’ to ‘CA DLP’.
