This is a known issue in a Windows Server 2008 SharePoint Server when running the Microsoft SharePoint Utility Stsadm.exe which is used by the NetVault SharePoint APM.
Running the Stsadm.exe command in a Windows 2008 environment under any account different from the Local Administrator or the Domain\Administrator Account fails to run with Access denied
Workaround:
The Workaround for this problem is to Disable UAC (User Access Control), Reboot the SharePoint Server and run the job again.
**** Very important. You MUST Reboot the SharePoint Server that has the NetVault SharePoint APM installed after disabling UAC.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
There are several ways to disable UAC in a Windows 2008 SharePoint Server running the NetVault SharePoint APM:
1)- Login to the SharePoint Server machine running the NetVault SharePoint APM as Local or Domain Administrator and run the Command Prompt or run the Command Prompt as Administrator if logged in without Administrator's Rights.
