3 On the management station, change the IT Assistant services logon
credentials from
Local System account to the common account used to
log into the local SQL Server on both management station and the remote
database system. Let us assume that in this case, it is the local
Administrator account.
4 You should change the logon credentials for the IT Assistant Connection
Service and IT Assistant Network Monitoring Service. To do this,
right-click the individual services from the
Service Control Manager and
select
Properties . Select the Log On tab to change the logon credentials.
If you are configuring these services to run under a different user account,
the user account used for
Logon must have the following user privileges:
• Act as part of the operating system (this privilege is required on the
Windows 2000 system)
• Replace a process level token
• Log on as a service
To set these privileges, perform the following steps:
a Run secpol.msc in the Command Prompt dialog box.
b Select Security Settings  Local Policies  User Rights Assignments.
c Right-click the policy and select Properties (or Security , in case
of Windows 2000).
d Add the user name to this policy.
e Restart the system to apply the settings.
5 This step is optional and is required only if you plan to stop the SQL
Server service from running on the management station.
During IT Assistant installation, IT Assistant services are created to
depend on the SNMP service and the SQL Server’s MSSQLServer service.
You can remove the dependency of the IT Assistant services on SQL
Server’s MSSQLServer service by editing the registry for the IT Assistant
services on the management station.
CAUTION: Before editing the registry, ensure that you save a copy of the registry
and understand how to restore it if a problem occurs.
