Installing CA Enterprise Log Manager - CA Technologies

Configuring the Event Log StoreSet Key File Ownership on a Remote HostYou can set key file ownership and permissions on a remote storage server if yougenerated a key pair on the reporting server and copied the public key to thatremote storage server. This procedure assumes the remote storage server is nota CA Enterprise Log Manager server and that you need to create new users, agroup, and a directory structure that mirrors that of a CA Enterprise Log Managerserver. If you copied the public key of a key pair generated on the reportingserver to a host that is a CA Enterprise Log Manager, use the procedure "Set KeyFile Ownership" on that server.To move the public key file to the correct location on the remote storageserver and set file ownership1. Log into the remote storage server as a root user using ssh.2. Create a new user called caelmadmin.3. Create a group called caelmservice and then create a new user calledcaelmservice.4. Create the directory, /opt/CA/LogManager.5. Change the home directory for the caelmservice user to/opt/CA/LogManager using the following command:usermod -d /opt/CA/LogManager caelmservice6. Set the file permissions for the caelmservice account using the followingcommand:chown -R caelmservice:caelmservice /opt/CA/LogManager7. Change to the directory, /opt/CA/LogManager.8. Create the directory, .ssh.9. Change the ownership of the .ssh folder to the caelmservice user and groupwith the command:chown caelmservice:caelmservice .ssh10. Change directory to the .ssh folder.11. Copy the authorized_keys file from the tmp folder with the command:cp /tmp/authorized_keys .12. Change the ownership of the authorized keys file with the command:chown caelmservice:caelmservice authorized_keys13. Change the permissions on the authorized keys file with the command:chmod 755 authorized_keysNon-interactive authentication is now configured between a CA EnterpriseLog Manager reporting server and the remote host used for storage.122 Implementation Guide
