You can enable/disable the components independently; the state of one component does not affect the function of the other components. For using the full capabilities of the EMA, Ribbon recommends enabling all the components simultaneously.

You can disable/enable the components during installation, or after the installation. By default, all the components are enabled. For the post-installation changes to take effect, restart the application.

Note

When you disable the EMA Core/Management and enable the Troubleshooting component, the following restrictions apply to Sign In screens and other user interfaces:

  • For Admin, Operator and Field Service user roles, the Troubleshooting module appears in Classic workspace; the SBC displays the Home/Troubleshooting (excludes Dashboard, but includes Live Monitor), and the All perspective.
  • For user roles such as CALEA and Security Auditor, the SBC displays an error.
Note

If you upgrade the EMA from a pre-9.0 version to 9.0 or higher, all the components are enabled. However, if you upgrade the EMA from 9.0 to higher versions, the state of the components in the upgraded version remains the same as that of the old version.
