Do system user accounts need Admin/Root rights to operate Netvault (4042482)

Date: 08/10
Product & Version: N/A
Module & Version: N/A
OS Version: all
Application version: N/A

Description:

a) The account the Netvault service is running under on the Server and/or client needs Admin rights in order to access all files on the system. This is 'Local System' by default but it can also be a domain user.

b) The account the Netvault GUI is started with also needs admin rights in order to access files and resources required by the GUI.

The User/Password login that Netvault presents after opening the GUI is entirely to determnine access to Netvault functions and is completely internal. It has nothing to do with System user accounts Likewise the system password, as specified in nvconfigurator for that system is also internal to NetVault and is only to allow other servers to add this machine when this password is provided.
