Before installing Sentinel Agent Manager, ensure your logon account is a member of the local Administrators group on the computers where you install Sentinel Agent Manager components. Also ensure your logon account is a member of the Microsoft SQL Server sysadmin role on the database server.
NOTE:
You do not need an Administrator account or SQL Server sysadmin account to run most Sentinel Agent Manager consoles or utilities after installation.
You must use an account that is a member of the Microsoft SQL Server sysadmin role on the database server to use the Access Configuration utility.
In Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista environments, users added to the Administrators group do not have built-in administrator privileges by default and are subject to User Account Control restrictions.
When you manually install an agent on a computer with Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Vista installed, you may need to run the setup program using the built-in administrator account. To run ManualAgent.msi as the administrator, open the command-line interface using the runas command:
runas /user:administrator cmd
In the command-line interface, run the .msi according to the installation instructions.
