Configuring CA SOI › Configure CA Embedded Entitlements Manager Single Sign-On

Configure CA Embedded Entitlements Manager Single Sign-On

As an administrator, you can enable single sign-on with CA EEM. The SA Manager and UI Server use CA EEM to authenticate user credentials against multiple applications.

Establish or update CA EEM connection settings in the following circumstances:

• You did not define CA EEM connection settings during the CA SOI installation.
• The password for the EiamAdmin user changes.

Note: Other changes to the CA EEM server can also require you to update the CA EEM configuration settings.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration tab.
2. Click the plus sign (+) next to the CA Service Operations Insight Manager Configuration or CA Service Operations Insight UI Server Configuration option.
3. Click the plus sign (+) next to the server you want to configure.
4. Click the EEM Configuration option.
5. Specify the following parameters:

   Note: If you do not know these values, refer the Installation Worksheet for the CA EEM values. For more information, see the Implementation Guide.

   EEM Server Host

   Defines the name of the server where CA EEM is installed.

   User Name

   Defines the name of the CA EEM administrator user (typically EiamAdmin).

   Password

   Defines the password of the CA EEM administrator user.

   Application Name

   Defines the application name CA EEM uses for CA SOI user management. The entry uses the following format: SOI_soi_server_name.

   Change Password Allowed

   Specifies whether users can change their password from the CA SOI interface. Select this box from the UI Server EEM Configuration page to enable password changes from the CA SOI interface.

6. Click Test to verify that the settings are valid on the CA EEM server, and click Save.
   • If you clicked Test, the settings are temporarily applied and your user credentials are validated. If errors are displayed, fix them before saving or retesting.
   • If you clicked Save, the settings are saved and a confirmation message displays.
7. (Optional) Click Launch EEM to open the CA EEM login page.

   The login page opens and the CA SOI instance you specified in the Application Name field is added to the CA EEM login page Application drop‑down list.

Important! Update the CA EEM configuration settings for the SA Manager, and the UI Server.

Note: If the Administration tab changes do not save or the fields clear when you click Save or Test, adjust your browser settings. One of the following actions should solve the problem:

• Add the CA SOI URL to your trusted sites and lower the privacy to accept all cookies. For more information about trusted sites and privacy settings, see your browser documentation.
• Add the domain name of the CA SOI UI Server and SA Manager (for example, company.com) to the privacy managed websites and set to Allow. For more information about managing privacy settings, see your browser documentation.
