The coexistence utility runs the Policy Manager plug-in to scan the computer for Policy Manager registry keys and executables before the Privileged Identity Manager installation begins, as follows:
- Queries the following registry key for existence:
If the registry key exists, the plug-in:HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\SeAM.Exe- Reads the value of the Path entry
- Returns the following executable pathname:FilePathFromRegistry\Bin\SeAM.exe
- Issues a compatibility warning during Privileged Identity Manager installationThis is the default action as defined in the response file. The Policy Manager plug-in does not add a trusted program (SPECIALPGM) rule by default.
The response file determines the default action that the coexistence utility performs at prescribed stages (what to do before Privileged Identity Manager installation, after Privileged Identity Manager installation, and so on). Also, the Policy Manager application is no longer provided with Privileged Identity Manager.
