Assign Security Privilege to the PE Domain User

The PE domain user requires the ‘Log on as a batch job’ security privilege. This permits policy engines on remote machines to access the policy engine hub. To assign this privilege:

  1. Ensure that you are logged on with local administrator rights on the host machine for the policy engine hub.
  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 batch job’ privilege to the PE domain user.
