Installing and Running seemonitor as a Windows Service
seemonitor is installed as a Windows service as part of the
Enterprise Server for .NET product installation. It is configured to run under the
localsystem account with
-service -nobanner set as its default command-line options. When running in a scaled-out configuration, you will need to run the seemonitor service as a user with sysadmin privileges to each of the region and cross-region databases used by the configuration. If you want to run the service under a different account you must first uninstall it using:
seemonitor -u
and then re-install specifying the required account. For example:
seemonitor -i -service_username:mydom\me -service_password:xxx
will install the seemonitor service to run under the user
mydom\me.
