User Account
Permissions

Installer user

dbcreator and db_owner roles

Using the installer

If you install the Spotlight Management Framework database using the Installation wizard, the installer user account must have a SQL Server login with the dbcreator server role.

During installation, the installer automatically grants the db_owner database role to the installer user for the Spotlight Management Framework database.

NOTE: If you are using SQL Server Always On, you must have configured an availability group listener that connects to the primary replica.

Manually installing the database

If you manually install the Spotlight Management Framework database using the scripts, you must have a SQL Server login for the installer user account. You must grant the db_owner database role to the account for Spotlight Management Framework database.

For more information to manually install Spotlight Management Framework database, see Manually installing the Management Console database .

Service account

Server roles/database roles required for the UC Diagnostics service account at installation time are as follows:

Using the installer

If you install Spotlight Management Framework database using Installation wizard, you must have a SQL Server login for the UC Diagnostics service account. During installation, the Installer automatically grants the db_owner database role to the service account for the Spotlight Management Framework database.

Manually installing the database

Service Account

* 
IMPORTANT: If you are using SQL Server Always On, you must grant db_Owner permissions to the Spotlight Management Framework database on all the availability replicas.

Diagnostic Console operating recommendations

The Diagnostic Console is not intended to be operated continuously for long periods of time. The console frequently retrieves a large amount of data from a server. This places excessive stress on a server, affecting its performance. It also consumes critical system resources, which can affect the stability of UC Diagnostics over a long time period.

Consider the following recommendations:

•
Allow the Diagnostic Console to view a maximum number of 10 servers at any one time.
•
If you install the Diagnostic Console on a computer containing Spotlight products and you want to launch the Diagnostic Console from the UC Diagnostics Management Console, you must install the Diagnostic Console and the Spotlight products on C: drive. Otherwise, the Diagnostic Console fails to launch from the Management Console. As a workaround, create a shortcut on your desktop to C:\Program Files\Quest\Spotlight\Console\Spotlight.exe to manually open connections.
