Managing UC Monitor Security

UC Monitor security integration with CA Performance Center is similar to that of other data sources. CA Performance Center provides centralized management of user accounts, permissions, SNMP profiles, and groups among all CA data sources. Centralized user account and group management tasks make it easy to share user access permissions for different CA Performance Center data sources among IT teams.

To take advantage of the centralized management feature, register UC Monitor as a data source for CA Performance Center. Registration lets CA Performance Center assume certain management tasks for UC Monitor and makes those tasks accessible to users with the appropriate administrative product privileges.

Before UC Monitor is registered as a data source, the administrator uses the UC Monitor management console to view, add, edit, and delete user accounts, roles, and SNMP profiles.
After UC Monitor is registered as a data source, the administrator is redirected to CA Performance Center for all administrative tasks associated with users, roles, permissions, and groups. All users and roles defined in the system, including users and roles from other CA Performance Center data sources, are displayed on the UC Monitor Administration pages. However, you manage users and roles from the CA Performance Center console.
