Supported CA DataMinder Components

You can use wgncred.exe to set the credentials for components. Each has its own component ID.

Event Import for Notes Import Client

When importing Lotus Notes e‑mails, Event Import accesses the Notes databases as Notes user. Instead of specifying the password for this user in the import configuration file, we recommend that you cache this password using wgncreed.exe.

Component ID: NotesImport

File Scaning Agent (FSA)

When scanning database records, the FSA connects to the target database using the authentication method specified in the scanning job definition. As a secure alternative to storing a database user’s password in plain text in the XML job definition file, you can use wgncred.exe to cache the password. (This is especially important when scanning Oracle databases because we recommend that the FSA does not use ‘Windows authentication’).

You indicate that you are using cached database credentials when you create a database scanning job in the Administration console; see the line help for details; search for ‘connection string’.

Component ID: FSADBSCAN

Policy Engines connecting to Voltage SecureEmail Servers

When decrypting emails encrypted with Voltage SecureMail, policy engines use the cached account credentials to connect to a Voltage SecureMail server.

Component ID: Voltage

Quarantine Manager connecting to Lotus Notes mailboxes

To specify which user account the Quarantine Manager (QM) uses to release quarantined Notes e‑mails, you must specify a Domino mailbox in the registry. You must also cache the password for the Notes ‘Current User’ on the QM host server.

Component ID: QMGRNOTES

Quarantine Manager connecting to SMTP servers

To specify which user account the Quarantine Manager (QM) uses to release quarantined SMTP e‑mails, you must specify a Domino mailbox in the registry. You must also cache the password for the Notes ‘Current User’ on the QM host server.

RDM connecting to IBM DB2 CommonStore

The RDM uses the cached account credentials to retrieve emails from the IBM DB2 Content Manager archive during an event search. For CommonStore for Lotus Domino, the RDM must also connect to the Notes Client as part of the retrieval process.

(Exchange) Content Manager Component ID: RDMCSX

(Domino) Content Manager component ID:RDMCSLD
