Tune Continuous Update Intervals

When Smart Provisioning functionality is enabled, CA Identity Manager notifies CA RCM of provisioning role changes at frequent intervals, instead of waiting for an import from CA Identity Manager to CA RCM. Continuous updates, which are sent using web services, help ensure that CA RCM has the most current Identity Manager information.

When a provisioning role, account, or account template change occurs, CA Identity Manager generates a notification and adds it to a queue. At specified intervals, CA Identity Manager creates an aggregate notification with all the information in the queue and sends it to CA RCM.

To improve performance, you can configure how frequently CA Identity Manager sends information to CA RCM by defining a 'queue notification delay' parameter for the Environment. By default, this parameter is set to 60 seconds.

To tune continuous update intervals

1. In the Management Console, open Environments, Environment Name, Advanced Settings, Miscellaneous.

   The User Defined Properties page opens.

2. Enter QueueNotificationDelay in the Property field.
3. Specify an interval in seconds in the Value field.

   CA Identity Manager sends information to CA RCM every number of seconds you specify.

   Note: To send notifications immediately, set the value to 0. In this case, CA Identity Manager sends each notification when it enters the queue, without adding it to an aggregate notification.

4. Click Add.
5. Restart the Environment.
