What permissions are required to be set on WMI name-spaces and DCOM?
What can be done when you cannot use a user in the Local Admin group of the Monitored Host for the Agent?
WinRM is the preferred connection mechanism for monitoring Windows servers.
The following items must be in place before attempting to monitor a target application server using WMI.
Windows registry changes are often necessary on the monitored Windows server for WMI connections from Linux-based FglAMs to be successful.
If the OS user cannot be a member of the local admin group, please set permissions for the remote user on both DCOM and WMI components as described in KB article 102431 or the most recent copy of the Foglight Agent Manager user guide which is available for download from the Supportlink Technical Documentation area here.
DCOM default and limit permissions edited to allow for the following actions:
Modify the SIMV2 security to enable and remote enable the account used to access the server or workstation through WMI. Ensure that the security change applies to the current namespace and subnamepaces.
Ensure that WMI traffic can pass through the firewall.
