Resolution

To re-register CCA in EEM, please follow these steps:

1. Download the attached XML file ("acm_app_instance_r128.xml").

3. Open a command prompt on the EEM Server (as Administration).
4. Run the following command:

   safex –h <EEM Server Name> -u EiamAdmin –p <EiamAdmin’s password> -f acm_app_instance_r128.xml

5. You should be able to see the "CCA" as a dropdown option for Application in the EEM UI login screen 

Additionally, you should verify the settings in Configuration Automation by navigating to the EEM settings:

1. Log in to the Configuration Automation UI

If you do not have access to the GUI, then this information can be carefully updated in the acm_prop table.
