Remediation - Manual Procedure

The IAO working with the systems programmer will ensure the CA Common Services Started Task(s) is properly identified and/or defined to the System ACP. 

If the product requires a Started Task, verify that it is properly defined to the System ACP with the proper attributes.

Most installation manuals will indicate how a Started Task is identified and any additional attributes that must be specified.
