Install IM Import

The process of extracting archived IM conversations uses IMFrontEnd.exe. You install this utility using the CA DLP Integration Agents installation wizard.

To install IMFrontEnd.exe

  1. Launch the CA DLP installation wizard. To do this, run setup.exe in your CA DLP distribution image.
  2. In the Installation Type screen, choose Advanced Installation.
  3. In the Advanced Install Options screen, choose Server Agents and then click Install.

    This launches the Integration Agents installation wizard in a separate window.

  4. In the Integration Agents installation wizard, navigate to the Customer Setup screen.
  5. In the Custom Setup screen, choose Bloomberg and IM Support.

    IMFrontEnd.exe is installed as part of this feature.

  6. In the final wizard screen, click Install to start the file transfer.

    A sample configuration file, IMFrontEnd.ini, is installed to the \Import subfolder of the CA DLP installation folder. This file contains various commonly used parameters, but you may need to customize this file to suit your organization.

  7. Configure IMFrontEnd.ini to suit your network environment.
