Orchestrator Pools Definition

SSLClosed TLS (Transport Layer Security) and its predecessor SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) are protocols for establishing authenticated and encrypted links between networked computers. network discovery and monitoring scanning is performed by assigning an orchestratorClosed Keyfactor orchestrators perform a variety of functions, including managing certificate stores and SSH key stores. pool, containing orchestrators with discovery and monitoring capabilities, to a network. An orchestrator pool contains one to many orchestrators that support the SSL discovery and monitoring capabilities. Network scanning using orchestrator pools allows the work to be dispersed among the orchestrators in the pool.

Out of the box, all approved Windows orchestrators and Keyfactor Universal OrchestratorClosed The Keyfactor Universal Orchestrator, one of Keyfactor's suite of orchestrators, is used to interact with Windows servers (a.k.a. IIS certificate stores) and FTP capable devices for certificate management, run SSL discovery and management tasks, and manage synchronization of certificate authorities in remote forests. With the addition of custom extensions, it can run custom jobs to provide certificate management capabilities on a variety of platforms and devices (e.g. F5 devices, NetScaler devices, Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources) and execute tasks outside the standard list of certificate management functions. It runs on either Windows or Linux.s with the SSL capability are assigned to a default orchestrator pool. For scanning of larger and more complicated networks, orchestrator pools can be configured with multiple orchestrators running concurrently to perform the scanning operation.

Note:  Approved orchestrators assigned to a custom pool will be removed from the default orchestrator pool. If a custom pool is removed, the orchestrator will be re-assigned to the default orchestrator pool.
