Exchange 2007 and 2010 Server Agent and PE Hub

You can only install the Exchange 2007 and 2010 server agents on 64-bit system. However, when you install the server agent, a 32-bit PE hub is also installed automatically. As a result, the Exchange server agent and the PE hub have different installation folders and registry keys.

However, there are no differences between the Exchange server agent and the PE hub in terms of log file location or performance counters.

Installation Folder

On 64-bit machines, 32-bit applications are installed to their own ‘32-bit’ installation folder.

The 64-bit Exchange 2007 and 2010 server agents are installed to a subfolder below the \Program Files folder, while 32-bit components such as the PE hub are installed below the \Program Files (x86) folder.

Registry Keys

When 32-bit applications such as the PE hub are installed on 64-bit systems, any associated registry keys are created in their own ‘32-bit’ subkey.

Registry values for the Exchange 2007 and 2010 server agents are created in the following subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\CA DataMinder
    \CurrentVersion\Exchange

Registry values for the PE hub are created in the following subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6332Node\ComputerAssociates\CA DataMinder
    \CurrentVersion\Policy Engine Hub

Log Files

On a 64-bit system, log files for the Exchange 2007 and 2010 server agents and the PE hub are all in the same location. Find these CA DataMinder logs in the \data\log subfolder of the Windows All Users profile.

Performance Counters

On a 64-bit system, all CA DataMinder performance counters, including counters for a 32-bit PE hub, are supported in the default 64-bit version of the Performance applet.
