Question

The DataFlowProbe.properties file contains the following commented out configuration entries:
# Password Vault Integration properties
# ------------------------------------------
#appilog.agent.local.passwordsVaultManagerClass=com.hp.ucmdb.discovery.probe.util.credentials.CyberArkVaultManager
#appilog.agent.local.passwordsVaultCredFile=C:\\\\Program Files\\\\CyberArk\\\\ApplicationPasswordProvider\\\\Vault\\\\App_test.cred
Can probe credentials be integrated with CyberArk Password Vault? If so, how. I'm unable to find any documentation.

Answer

The situation with CyberArk is as follows:
• It used to work with UCMDB v8, but this integration was broken as of UCMDB 9.0x due to the introduction of the Confidential Manager for managing the credentials. So, for UCMDB 9.0x and upper the integration is not supported.
• Currently there are discussions to include this integration back into the product in an UCMDB future version, however no final decision yet.

. You may find additional information in the UCMDB Hardening Guide about the Confidential Manager in Chapter 4 of the following URL.
