About the Symantec Product Authentication Service

Symantec Product Authentication Service provides a hierarchy of brokers that
issue credentials. These brokers allow trusted communications between users
and processes on the Policy Master systems and client systems. All VCS One
environments require the Symantec Product Authentication Service for trusted
communications. The Symantec Product Authentication Service is installed
when you install VCS One.
VCS One uses an embedded broker model where the root broker and
authentication broker are always running on the active Policy Master system.
The Symantec Product Authentication Service issues credentials to the Policy
Master, the VCS One client processes, and all users in the VCS One cluster.
Symantec Product Authentication Service supports third-party private domain
repositories, such as LDAP and Active Directory.
For information on setting up authentication with third-party private domain
repositories, see
page
Removing earlier versions of the Symantec Product Authentication
Service
If you have an earlier version of the Symantec Product Authentication Service
installed, you must remove it before installing VCS One. The Symantec Product
Authentication Service is installed when you install VCS One.
On your Policy Master and client systems, remove all VRTSatclient and
VRTSatserver packages, including credentials and the /var/VRTSat and
Go to the cluster_server_one directory. Enter the following:
cd cluster_server_one
