After installing the Unified Agent, you may want to update some configurations for your environment’s specific requirements. Unified Agent configurations are stored in three files:
/ua/conf/agent-config.xml – settings for the agent services.
/ua/conf/csi-properties – settings for the security modules.
/ua/conf/roles-map.xml – role mapping information.
Use the Agent Management Console to update the settings in this field.
Do not
edit these files manually, as erroneous settings may produce unpredictable
system behaviors or may compromise security requirements.
For information on how to make configuration changes, see Chapter 4, “Agent Management Console Features and Functionality.”
After you have updated Unified Agent, you may want to:
Simple login module
Assign a password for the default administrative login, uafadmin. Enter a password that conforms to your password standards. This login allows you to connect to Unified Agent and perform administrative tasks when other security modules are not available.
Turn on encryption for the password. By default, encryption is not enabled.
Login modules – define role mappings for each login module defined in addition to the Anonymous Login Module and the Simple Login Module. Create mappings between native roles and the roles defined in Unified Agent. At a minimum, map to the “uaAgentAdmin” role to allow administrators to administer the agent without using the Simple Login Module.
Discovery Adapters – add discovery adapters to enable the agent to register with additional discovery services. You can also edit or delete existing adapters.
Security Services – the security service provides encryption services used by various components such as the Simple Login Module. The default encryption algorithm is set to DES. To change the algorithm to RSA, see Appendix A, “Password Encryption and Security Configuration.”
SNMP Service – the SNMP Service is a Simple Network Management Protocol Agent that responds to client requests and sends SNMP notification messages, called traps. The default port for the SNMP command responder is UDP 1498. The default notification port for SNMP traps is 49152. This service is not started unless it is required, by another service or an agent plug-in.
TDS™ Service – The TDS Service provides Tabular Data Stream remote procedure calls into the Unified Agent Framework. The default TDS port number is 9995. This service in not started unless it is required by another service or an agent plug-in.
After you have made all the changes, restart the agent.
