This section discusses users that are created or used during Sentinel installation and normal Sentinel operations. Unless you create domain users in advance in order to use Windows Authentication, these users are created by the Sentinel installer. These user accounts are used for Sentinel’s normal operations, such as event inserts into the Sentinel database.
The administrator might select to occasionally change the passwords for these accounts. To ensure continued normal Sentinel operations, there are special procedures necessary to update the passwords in all necessary locations.
