User Rights Management
Adding the domain user to the Xmedia Server’s security
credentials
A direct consequence of the use of user rights management is that the Xmedia Server and
the VxDataServer services must run under a security context other than
LocalSystemAccount. In fact, they both need to be running inside the security context of a
domain user.
With the XMS Service now stopped, you can delegate administrative privileges to the
domain user on the Xmedia Server machine.
To grant the domain user administrative privileges to the Xmedia Server:
1.
Start and log into the Xmedia Server as an Administrator user.
2.
Add the newly created domain user as an administrator to the XMS machine.
