Comparing PMDB to Local Database

CA IdentityMinder manages CA Access Control identities in an identity store that can be either a CA Access Control PMDB or a local database. Since CA IdentityMinder and CA Access Control both manage users and passwords, it is an architecture decision as to which users are managed by CA IdentityMinder and which by CA Access Control. A general guideline is that CA IdentityMinder manages a PMDB and the PMDB handles the propagation of all its subscribers.
