Non-Admin Collector install
After trying to navigate through all the ramifications of Collector Least Privilege, I considered the option of simply getting new VM servers and installing new collectors with a "least privilege" user account. I'm fortunate enough that we have sufficient compute and storage resources that my request for new VMs can be delivered, and then I can remove the old collectors from service and our server virtualization team can delete them (returning those compute and storage resources to the available pool; net impact is 0). This seems like it will be less overall headache and effort than running the LM-supplied scripts. So I'm just going to throw this screen shot out there, for public consumption, of the install ---being done with the intent of moving to "Least Privilege"---recommending Domain Admin/Local Admin. Sure, maybe this is just an artifact in the installer presentation?113Views4likes3Comments
