<h1 class="topictitle1">Synchronize functions</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>You can synchronize the configuration of key functions, such as
|
||
|
|
EIM and Kerberos, across a group of endpoint systems.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You select a model endpoint system and a set of target endpoint systems,
|
||
|
|
and then use the Synchronize Functions wizard to duplicate the model system's
|
||
|
|
Kerberos or EIM configurations (or both) on the specified target systems.
|
||
|
|
Synchronizing these functions from the model system saves you time by eliminating
|
||
|
|
the task of individually configuring each function on each target system.
|
||
|
|
Synchronizing your EIM configurations allows you to create EIM associations
|
||
|
|
between user identities within your network. This in turn allows a user who
|
||
|
|
has different profiles on different systems to work with distributed applications
|
||
|
|
that use Kerberos authentication without having to sign on to each of these
|
||
|
|
systems individually.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For example, John Smith may be JSMITH on system CHICAGO1, JOHNSMITH on
|
||
|
|
system DETROIT1, and JRSMITH on system DENVER. If EIM and Kerberos are configured
|
||
|
|
on all three systems, and all three profiles are associated with the same
|
||
|
|
EIM identifier, John Smith can use Management Central to manage these V5R3
|
||
|
|
systems. For example, he can run commands on these systems, and monitor performance,
|
||
|
|
jobs, and other resources on these systems. John Smith can also access other
|
||
|
|
services and applications that use EIM and Kerberos authentication without
|
||
|
|
the need for multiple passwords to these different systems across the enterprise.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Using Kerberos and EIM together in this way is referred to as <dfn class="term">single
|
||
|
|
signon</dfn> because it eliminates the need to provide multiple user names
|
||
|
|
and passwords for distributed applications. Single signon benefits users,
|
||
|
|
administrators, and application developers by enabling an easier password
|
||
|
|
management system across multiple platforms without the need to change underlying
|
||
|
|
security policies. See Single signon for details on how to enable single signon
|
||
|
|
by using network authentication service and Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM).</p>

<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If the SNTP box is checked then a TCP job QTOTNTP should be running
|
||
|
|
on the endpoint. If it is not running then Management Central will use information
|
||
|
|
from the model system. If SNTP is checked and the client QTOTNTP job is running
|
||
|
|
then you should not run multiple Time Synchronization tasks within one polling
