Issue/Introduction

Can auth_digest_module be disabled safely without impacting the NCM services. 

Environment

NCM - 10.1.X

Resolution

  • Disabling auth_digest_module would not impact NCM.
  • The Network Configuration Manager QA team has verified in Network Configuration Manager 9.5 running on RHEL, after disabling the auth_digest_module, services and jobs were still operational.
  • It is recommended to disable auth_digest_module and then restart all the services on all the servers (AS,DB,DS,RA) before performing any operations.
