Least Privilege not showing full list of Windows Services
Using LogicMonitor in full admin mode (ie we connect with a service account with admin rights on the target windows server) has presented no issues. All metrics work perfectly, we can monitor ALL windows services. We are now rolling out "Least Privilege" to 1000+ servers and followed the step by step documentation and used the PowerShell script to apply permissions. The WMI aspects of monitoring work ok. However when monitoring "windows services" we can only see a subset of services. It seems anything that is out of the box before we install applications or solutions like IIS, SQL, Oracle etc etc does not appearing the list. Its noticeably a smaller list. Has anyone seen this in their environment? We are told there have been no other reports. If we make the service account a local admin - all services appear perfectly. In the documentation here: Windows Server Monitoring and Principle of Least Privilege | LogicMonitor there are 5 steps to eventually running a command "sc sdset scmanager...". This command also does not work. What are your experiences? have you seen the same issue and how did you overcome?99Views3likes10Comments
