Reference CA SiteMinder as the User Store

If your user accounts are already defined to CA SiteMinder, reference this external directory when you configure the user store.

To reference CA SiteMinder as the user store

1. Log into a CA User Activity Reporting Module server as a user with administrator privileges or as the EiamAdmin user.
2. Click the Administration tab.

   If you log in as the EiamAdmin user, this tab displays automatically.

3. Select the User and Access Management subtab, and then click the User Store button on the left pane.

   The CA EEM Server configuration for User Store appears.

4. Select the option, Reference from CA SiteMinder.

   CA SiteMinder-specific fields appear.

   1. Complete these fields as planned on the SiteMinder Worksheet.
   2. To view or change connections and ports used by CA SiteMinder, click the ellipsis to display the Connection Attributes panel.
5. Click Save.

   Saving this reference loads user account information into CA EEM. This makes it possible for you to access these user records as global users and then add application-level details such as application user group, the name for user role.

6. Review the displayed status to verify that the external directory bind is successful and that data is loaded.

   If the status displays a warning, click Refresh status. If the status displays an error, correct the configuration, click Save, and repeat this step.

7. Click Close.
