Configuring the User StoreConfiguring the User StoreThe user store is the repository for global user information. You can configure theuser store as soon as you install a CA Enterprise Log Manager server. Only theEiamAdmin user can configure the user store, this is usually done immediatelyafter the first logon.Configure the user store in one of the following ways:■Accept the default, Store in internal datastoreNote: The default option could be displayed as the CA ManagementDatabase if, during installation, you pointed to a standalone CA EEM.■■Select Reference from an external directory, which can be an LDAP directorysuch as Microsoft Active Directory, Sun One, or Novell CA DirectorySelect Reference from CA SiteMinderIf you configure the user store as an external directory, you cannot create newusers. You can only add predefined and user defined application groups, or roles,to the read-only global user records. You must add new users in the external userstore and then add the CA Enterprise Log Manager permissions to the global userrecords.Accept the Default User StoreYou do not have to configure the user store if you accept the default, which is theinternal datastore. This applies if there is no external user store to reference.To verify that the default repository is configured as the user store1.
