ISO Image for New Installations

To help you quickly deploy CA Enterprise Log Manager or to add a new CA Enterprise Log Manager server to an existing deployment, we are providing an ISO image for the service pack. The ISO image is available from the Downloads area on Support Online.

We recommend that you use the most recent ISO image in the following cases:

• Deploying CA Enterprise Log Manager. Installing from the latest ISO image minimizes the number of required subscription upgrades you must apply and speeds your deployment.
• Adding a new CA Enterprise Log Manager server after you have upgraded the servers in your existing deployment. First establish that the servers and agents in your current deployment are successfully upgraded and receiving events. Then install new servers using the ISO image to add more capacity and minimize the number of subscription updates to apply.

Note: The installation procedure has changed. A new prompt asks whether you want to install with FIPS mode enabled. When adding a new CA Enterprise Log Manager server to an existing FIPS deployment (the CA Enterprise Log Manager management server or remote CA EEM server are in FIPS mode), enable FIPS mode during the installation. Otherwise the new server cannot register and you must reinstall. See the Implementation Guide for more information about FIPS mode.
