Assign the 'Log on as a service' privilege

In step 5 of Install the RDM, you changed the logon account used by the local CA Data Protection infrastructure service, Wgninfra.exe, from LocalSystem to a named user. This account requires the ‘Log on as a service’ security privilege. If you have not already done so, you must assign this privilege manually.

1. Ensure that you are logged on with local administrator rights on the RDM host machine.
2. On the host machine, open the Local Security Policy applet or, if this machine is a domain controller, open the Domain Controller Security Policy applet. Both applets are available in Administrative Tools.
3. Expand the Local Policies branch and select User Rights Assignment. This security area determines which users have logon privileges on the local computer.
4. Assign the ‘Log on as a service’ privilege to the CA Data Protection infrastructure logon account.
