Logic Server

The CA Catalyst Logic Server provides the logic and the modules that carry out the following operations:

Reconciliation

Creates a unified set of properties and values from instances of a single entity that multiple connectors retrieve. The Logic Server reconciles CIs using formulas that define the property values to use. The policy rules that you can define include first non-null wins, majority wins, and data from a specific domain manager wins.

Synchronization

Detects the following CI changes within the Persistent Store:

• reconciliation
• CI creation in the USM Web View
• CI update or deletion in a source domain manager, or through some other method

Synchronization pushes the changes to applicable domain managers integrated through bidirectional connectors. Synchronization policies can create specific synchronization rules or use cases that keep source domain managers synchronized with the USM data.

The Logic Server lets CA Catalyst create and maintain a unified set of reconciled, correlated data in the Persistent Store. From the Operations Console, you can view the reconciled set of USM properties for any CI, named the reconciled sheet. You can also view the USM notebook for any CI. The notebook lists the reconciled sheet and the USM properties for each managed instance of the CI in source domain managers.
