Environment

Release: UASIT.99000-12.9-Asset Intelligence
Component:

Cause

The parameter /itrm/manager/engine/MAC_filter is centrally managed so it could be only updated using a configuration policy.

In output of comstore generated with command like "dsmdiag -c comstore.txt" we could see this :

 

<Please see attached file for image>

MAC_filter has entity="Manager" so it is centrally managed.

 

But in Default Computer Policy there is no parameter MAC_filter displayed under DSM/Manager/Engines

So how to update parameter MAC_filter ?

Resolution

Parameter MAC_filter could be added in Default Computer Policy by executing following command :

 

ccnfregdb -f "C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\DSM\Manager\CCNF\EngineTrust.xml"
