After installing the first CA Enterprise Log Manager server, log into CA Enterprise Log Manager and configure the user store. The configured user store is where user names and passwords, used for authentication, and other global details are stored.
With all user store options, application user details are stored in the CA Enterprise Log Manager user store. This includes information such as roles, user favorites, and last login time.
Consider the following when planning the user store to configure:
Users are authenticated with the user names and passwords created in CA Enterprise Log Manager. You configure password policies. Users can change their own passwords and unlock other user accounts.
User names, passwords, and global groups are loaded from CA SiteMinder to the CA Enterprise Log Manager user store. Users are authenticated with the referenced user names and passwords. You can assign the global group to a new or existing policy. You cannot create new users, change passwords, or configure password policies.
User names and passwords are loaded from the LDAP directory to the CA Enterprise Log Manager user store. Users are authenticated with the referenced user names and passwords. The loaded user account information become global user accounts. You can assign the global users a user role corresponding to the access you want them to have in CA Enterprise Log Manager. You cannot create new users or configure password policies.
Important! We recommend that you back up the predefined access policies that are provided with CA Enterprise Log Manager before you or any Administrator begins working with them. For details, see the CA Enterprise Log Manager Administration Guide.
