Deploying Policy Engines

Deploying policy engines is the first step in the overall task of integrating CA Data Protection with third party email or archiving solutions, or when setting up the Import Policy feature.

The key deployment tasks are as follows:

1. Specify the required Windows and CA Data Protection user accounts.
2. Install your policy engines.
3. Configure your policy engines.
   • Configure the machine policy on the PE host machine.
   • Edit the registry to enable user lookup operations.
4. Deploy the policy engine hub.
5. Set up the event source. Policy engines process events arriving from an external source.
