Remediation

ACE has a system defined for remediation purposes. Remediation requests are made to the remediation system, which may either immediately execute the request, or queue it for later execution. It also supports the unavailability of the resource targeted for remediation.

Remediation Systems

Remediation requests are assigned a type value which defines what kind of remediation request it is. Each type of supported remediation is handled by a remediation system which is defined in the configuration settings.

The following types are currently supported.

Remediation Request Types

All remediation systems support two requests: remove and restore. A remove requests removes the object from the target, while a restore request restores a previously removed object back to the target.

It is important that both types of requests are supported and function correctly.

Remediation History

A history of all remediation requests taken, regardless of success, are recorded in the [remediation] table in the ace database.
