Software Maintenance Considerations

A number of considerations should be taken into account when doing CA Top Secret maintenance:

The maintenance must be scheduled at a time when it has the least impact on your environment.
Test plans must be available to ensure that CA Top Secret is still functioning as designed for your environment.
DO NOT update the CA Top Secret object code with your in-house modifications. This negates the integrity of the CA Top Secret software. CA Top Secret anti-tampering code is in place to detect unauthorized modifications to CA Top Secret software and CA Top Secret disables the operating system or forces reinitialization of an unmodified CA Top Secret if this occurs.
