Before You Start using CA DataMinder

After deploying your CMS, some further configuration is needed before you start using CA DataMinder. This mainly involves changes to the default policies for key user groups and new machines. You also need to edit the account properties of any new administrators and managers (though you may prefer to leave this task until you have deployed CA DataMinder to your client machines). Finally, you may need to amend your browser security settings if you intend using any Web page control triggers. This section covers the complete range of post-deployment tasks.

Follow these steps:

1. Choose an appropriate account to configure CA DataMinder
2. Configure your CMS machine policy to handle new accounts
3. Configure event purging
4. Configure the Management of Free Disk Space on Servers
5. Configure the Common Client and Gateway Policies
6. Synchronize the Clocks on Your CA DataMinder Machines
7. Configure the Policy for the Default User Group
8. Create and Organize a Hierarchy of User Groups
9. Create Your Administrators and Managers
10. Set Up Support for Unicode Characters
11. Install iConsole Searches
12. Integrate with Third-Party Object Storage Solutions
13. Configure event auditing labels
14. Set Up Policy Engines
