Issue/Introduction

How can the Privileged Access Manager (PAM) Application to Application (A2A) client be configured to clear its cache during a system reboot or service restart?

Resolution

In order to allow the client to reset the cache file when the service is stopped, add the preserveCacheBetweenRestarts option to the A2A configuration file and set its value to false.

  1. Browse to the cspm config directory and open cspm_client_config.xml for editing.
  2. Add a new line below the <cacheallow> line and paste the following.
    <preserveCacheBetweenRestarts>false</preserveCacheBetweenRestarts>
  3. Save the file and restart the A2A client.

Example:

<cacheallow>true</cacheallow>
<preserveCacheBetweenRestarts>false</preserveCacheBetweenRestarts>
<loglevel>INFO</loglevel>
