Issue/Introduction

The following article is a compilation of logging options that exist for Embedded Entitlements Manager.

Embedded Entitlements Manager, also known by the acronyms EEM, EIAM, or ETEIAM, is a backend component that is used by multiple products to facilitate authentication.  The component reads from either its own LDAP implementation, known as CA Directory, or can plug into a 3rd party LDAP Server, from which authentication and application permissions may be defined.

Environment

Various products which leverage EEM, including:

CA Service Catalog
CA Service Management - Service Desk Manager
CA Process Automation
CA IT Asset Manager/Asset Portfolio Manager
CA Workload Automation AE - Scheduler (AutoSys)
