Syncing the ALM Engine

To use the ALM Engine Sync tool:

  1. Navigate to Integrations and choose the Vaults tab.
  2. Select the vault that needs an active ALM Engine connection. The details page for that vault loads.
  3. Select the ALM Engines tab.
  4. Click Sync.

This queues an ALM Engine Calibration Job and prompts a modal dialog confirming: Vault Synchronization started, it may take several minutes to complete.

The ALM Engine Calibration Job connects with the ALM Engines, tasking each one to authenticate with the selected Secret Server vault. The Calibration Job keeps track of which ALM Engines successfully authenticate to the vault, creating a list of ALM Engines known to have access to that Secret Server instance.

  • That list populates a table on the ALM Engines tab of the vault details page.
  • ALM Engines that did not authenticate will not appear on the list.
  • If no ALM Engine authenticated, the vault details page will indicate that “No ALM Engines synced to integration.”

An ALM Engines Calibration Job runs as part of any scheduled sync for a vault, with the list of successfully authenticating ALM Engines updating on completion of the sync job.
