ControlPoint Application Administrators must ensure that the ControlPoint Service Account has Full Control access rights to the Web application(s) if:
·a new Web application is added to a farm
·a new content database has been added to a Web application, or
·the permissions for the ControlPoint Service Account have been changed in or deleted from the Web application's policy.
If an account other than the ControlPoint Service Account is used as the Application Pool account, the following text will display beside the Web application icon in the left navigation pane: "(ControlPoint does not have access to this Web app. Access must be granted via the ControlPoint Configuration Wizard.)"
If a content database has been added and access rights have not been granted, site collections beneath the text "Inaccessible" will display.
You can grant access rights to Web applications and content databases from the server on which ControlPoint is installed.
To grant access to additional Web application(s) or Content Database(s):
1.Log into the server where ControlPoint is installed as the ControlPoint installation account.
NOTE: As a sysadmin, the ControlPoint installation account has the permissions required to grant access rights.
2.Launch the ControlPoint Configuration Wizard.
After the ControlPoint Components check has completed, click [Continue].
The Configuration Wizard Welcome dialog displays.
3.Click Grant Access to New Web Apps and Content Databases.
Once access has been successfully granted, a confirmation pop-up displays.
NOTE: If no new Web applications or content databases have been added, the pop-up will display the message All Web apps and content databases are already configured for ControlPoint.
Toward the end of ControlPoint configuration process you have the option to configure the following Windows service(s):
·The ControlPoint Discovery Service, which collects data and stores it in the ControlPoint Services (xcAdmin) database cache for use in ControlPoint data analysis and reporting.
AND/OR
·If Sensitive Content Manager is installed in your environment, ControlPoint Sensitive Content Manager (SCM) Services will allow you to use it within ControlPoint:
§as a means of checking for:
oContent Analysis (CA) jobs ready to be uploaded from ControlPoint to Sensitive Content Manager for scanning.
AND
oScan results ready to be downloaded from Sensitive Content Manager to ControlPoint for further action.
AND
§Because they support multi-threading, SCM Services are especially suited to very large content analysis jobs.
NOTE: If you want to configure services at a later time, you can do so by launching the Configuration Wizard from the server on which ControlPoint is installed (using the same login account used to install the ControlPoint application). After you have verified the Wizard has finished checking installed components, select Configure Services.
To configure ControlPoint Services:
1On the Configure Services dialog, select the service(s) you want to configure.
IMPORTANT:
§The Service Account must meet all of the requirements of the ControlPoint Service Account, as well as permission to Run as a Service.
§Keep in mind that the latest version of ControlPoint Sensitive Content Manager Service will only work with version 2.0 or later of Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager.
2Select the service(s) you want to configure.
3Click [Continue].
4Click [Start Deployment].
The installer deploys the selected Windows service(s).
5When the services have been successfully deployed, click [Finish].
Additional Setup Requirement for the ControlPoint Discovery Service
Before you can use the ControlPoint Discovery Service for the first time, you must also perform the following configuration tasks on the General tab of the Discovery Setup application (located, by default, in the folder C:\Program Files\Metalogix\ControlPoint\ControlPointFeatures\Services\Discovery):
·For Configure Discovery to run under, select SharePoint Local, and
·Add the SQL Server Connection String for xcAdmin Database.
NOTE: You can copy the Connection String from the file CPConfiguration.exe.config, located, by default, in the folder C:\Program Files\Metalogix\ControlPoint\ControlPointFeatures. Use the portion of the string that starts with the words Data Source and ends with Integrated Security = <value>.
ControlPoint Discovery is a farm-specific background task that collects information and stores it in the ControlPoint Services (xcAdmin) database cache for the following purposes:
·for use in ControlPoint data analysis and reporting
·to populate SharePoint permissions for members of the ControlPoint Business Administrators group
·to identify ControlPoint users who meet the criteria for "Admins" for scheduled analysis distribution, and
·to populate and update statistics lists used to create dashboards.
Discovery is triggered by the ControlPoint Discovery Service to run on a pre-defined schedule. In addition to collecting data for analysis and reporting, Discovery records the SharePoint permissions of site administrators (that is, members of the ControlPoint Business Administrators group). See Making ControlPoint Available to Business Users (Site Administrators) in the ControlPoint User Guide.
If you want to ensure that your ControlPoint analyses have the most recent cached datayou can run the Discovery process interactively from the ControlPoint application. The ControlPoint installer includes the option to configure the Discovery Service.
If the ControlPoint Discovery Service is not installed, the operations and parameters that rely on cached data collected by Discovery are disabled.
