Local or Remote CA Embedded Entitlements Manager server?

Local - for the first installed server (management server)

Remote - for each additional server

Indicate whether you plan to use a local or a remote CA EEM server.

For a management CA Enterprise Log Manager server, choose Local. The installation prompts you to create a password for the default EiamAdmin user account.

For each additional server, choose Remote. The installation prompts you for the management server name.

Regardless of whether you chose local or remote, you must use the EiamAdmin account ID and password to log into each CA Enterprise Log Manager server the first time.

Enter name of the CA EEM server

IP address or hostname

This prompt displays only if you select Remote for the Local or Remote server prompt.

Enter the IP address or host name of the management CA Enterprise Log Manager server that you installed first.

The host name must be registered with the DNS Server.

CA EEM Server Admin password

EiamAdmin account password

Record the password for the default administrator account, EiamAdmin.

Your CA Enterprise Log Manager server requires these account credentials for the initial login.

If you are installing the management server, you are creating and confirming a new EiamAdmin password here.

Make a note of this password as you will use it again during the installations of other CA Enterprise Log Manager servers and agents.

Note: The password you enter here is also the initial password for the default caelmadmin account that you will use to access the CA Enterprise Log Manager server directly through ssh.

You can create additional administrator accounts to access the CA EEM functions after installation, if desired.

Application Instance Name

CAELM

When you install the first CA Enterprise Log Manager server in your network, you create an application instance value in this prompt.

Subsequent CA Enterprise Log Manager servers use this value to register with the management server.

The default application instance name is CAELM.

You can use any name for this value. Make a note of the application instance name for use with later CA Enterprise Log Manager installations.

Do you want to run CAELM Server in FIPS Mode?

yes or no

Your response to this prompt determines whether the CA Enterprise Log Manager server will start up in FIPS mode.

Note: If you are adding a server to an existing CA Enterprise Log Manager deployment, the CA Enterprise Log Manager management server or remote CA EEM server must also be in FIPS mode. Otherwise the new server cannot register and you will have to reinstall the new server again.
