How the Services and Controller Plug-In Works

The coexistence utility runs the Services and Controller plug-in to scan the computer for the Windows services management executable at the end of a CA ControlMinder installation and whenever the utility runs, as follows:

The coexistence utility runs the Services and Controller plug-in to scan the computer for the Windows services management executable at the end of a CA ControlMinder installation and whenever the utility runs, as follows:
  1. Checks if the operating system version is Windows Vista or later
    If the OS is of an earlier Windows version, the plug-in terminates.
  2. Creates the following SPECIALPGM resource of type KILL:
    %windir%\system32\services.exe
    This is the default action as defined in the response file.
The response file determines the default action that the coexistence utility performs at prescribed stages (what to do before CA ControlMinder installation, after CA ControlMinder installation, and so on).
