Common Application Framework and Startup Database Prior to r11, the solutions utilized a number of separate databases - including SDDATA and CSMDB for Unicenter Software Delivery, CAAMDB for Unicenter Asset Management, CA_RCDATA for Unicenter Remote Control and CADTSDB for Data Transport Service - in addition to the databases used by CCS, such as TNGDB for the CCS WorldView. Now, in r11 all the product specific databases form part of a single database schema in the MDB, although multiple databases may still be deployed in an enterprise (e. g., one MDB per Unicenter DSM Domain or Unicenter DSM Enterprise). Common Application Framework for Communications A variety of different communication mechanisms had been used in prior releases; however, in order to simplify the Unicenter DSM r11 solution, all three products now utilize a new Common Application Framework (CAF) for inter-machine communications as well as a host of other functionalities including service\daemon control and tracing. One exception to this is the Unicenter Remote Control viewer which, for performance reasons, continues to use the same communications processes as for the r6 release - but now uses the r11 port multiplexer. CAF is laid down automatically whenever an r11 component is installed on a machine; however, only one instance of the framework is installed, even if multiple components are installed. So, for example, if a Domain Manager, Scalability Server and an Agent are installed on a single host machine only one framework will be installed. Configuration The Unicenter DSM products can now be configured centrally. Security Model Authentication, authorization and encryption are all provided by common, shared technologies.

Common Application Framework and Startup
Database
Prior to r11, the solutions utilized a number of separate databases - including
SDDATA and CSMDB for Unicenter Software Delivery, CAAMDB for Unicenter
Asset Management, CA_RCDATA for Unicenter Remote Control and CADTSDB
for Data Transport Service -
in addition to the databases used by CCS, such
as TNGDB for the CCS WorldView.
Now, in r11 all the product specific databases form part of a single database
schema in the MDB, although multiple databases may still be deployed in an
enterprise (e. g., one MDB per Unicenter DSM Domain or Unicenter DSM
Enterprise).
Common Application Framework for Communications
A variety of different communication mechanisms had been used in prior
releases; however, in order to simplify the Unicenter DSM r11 solution, all
three products now utilize a new Common Application Framework (CAF) for
inter-machine communications as well as a host of other functionalities
including service\daemon control and tracing.
One exception to this is the Unicenter Remote Control viewer which, for
performance reasons, continues to use the same communications processes as
for the r6 release – but now uses the r11 port multiplexer.
CAF is laid down automatically whenever an r11 component is installed on a
machine; however, only one instance of the framework is installed, even if
multiple components are installed.
So, for example, if a Domain Manager,
Scalability Server and an Agent are installed on a single host machine only one
framework will be installed.
Configuration
The Unicenter DSM products can now be configured centrally.
Security Model
Authentication, authorization and encryption are all provided by common,
shared technologies.
