Granting the Analytics Log On As a Service Right (Windows)

Analytics License: All licenses.

Operating System: Windows only.

This task is part of the Process of Installing the Siebel Analytics Server Clustering Feature.

This Domain account must also have the Log on as a service right. Members of the Administrators group do not have this right by default. Therefore, if the cluster controllers are running under a Windows operating system, grant the Log on as a service right explicitly to this account on each computer using one of the following methods.

NOTE:  The Domain account for the clustered Siebel Analytics Server and cluster controllers must have the Log on as a service right explicitly granted on each computer running the servers and cluster controllers. However, the Siebel Analytics Web Server can be run under a different account or domain, as long as the Web Server login has the appropriate privileges.

Use one of the following procedures to perform the task of granting the Log on as a service right, based on your specific Windows platform.
