Installation and Removal
Make sure that user rights are set up correctly in the operating system. You can read about user rights in the
operating system on Microsoft's web site_(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc794944(WS.10).aspx (see
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc794944(WS.10).aspx - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-

Installing Log Server
The following describes the installation process (custom Installation).
1. On the computer on which you will install the log server, shut down any OnSSI software running. If
upgrading, it is highly recommended that you remove (see "Remove System Components" on page 27) any
previous versions of the server before upgrading.
2. Download the log server's installer from the management server's built-in web page at the address
http://[management server address]:[port]/installation/admin/
where [management server address] is the IP address or host name of the management server, and
[port] is the port number which IIS has been set up to use on the management server.
On the web page find the log servers' installer section, and then click the
English
link. Note that
depending on your security settings, one or more Windows security warnings may appear after you click
the link. If such security warnings appear, accept security warnings by clicking
Run
or similar (exact
button text depends on your browser version).
3. Run the installation file, either directly or from the location you saved it to. Follow the on-screen installation
guide.
4. Verify/specify the required installation path and click
Next
.
5. Log
Server:
o
Select the database to be used by the log server and click
Next
.
o
Select the web site on which you want to install and click
Next
.
o
Specify the URL address of the RC-E management server (example:
http://123.123.123.123
). If installing
the server on the management server itself, simply specify localhost and click
Next
.
6. Specify a user account under which the log server's service will run. The specified user is automatically
granted administrator rights in RC-E, see Specify the Rights of a Role (see "Specify Rights of a Role" on
page 150).
You must select between:
o
a predefined Network Service account (see "Select a Predefined Network Service Account" on page
23)(in which case the service will run whenever the computer acting as management server is running).
-or -
o
a particular user account (see "Select a Particular User Account" on page 23) (in which case the service
will use the specified user account to log in to the computer acting as recording server).
When should I choose a particular user account instead of a predefined?
If using network drives you
should always specify a particular user account (with access to the network drives in question). Otherwise the
service in question is unable to handle the required network drives.
7. Click
Install
. When installation is complete, click
Finish
