3.4 Disabling Active Directory Integration with Message Queuing

Sentinel Agent Manager requires that you install the Message Queuing Windows component on a computer before installation of some Sentinel Agent Manager components. However, unless you actively use the Active Directory Integration sub-component of the Message Queuing Windows component, NetIQ recommends you disable Active Directory Integration. You can either disable Active Directory Integration when installing Message Queuing or disable it after installation.

For more information about Sentinel Agent Manager prerequisites, see Section 2.0, Planning to Install Sentinel Agent Manager.

NOTE:In Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019, the Active Directory Integration sub-component is called Directory Services Integration.

To disable Active Directory Integration after installing Message Queuing:

  1. Log on to the computer on which you installed the Message Queuing Windows component and you want to install Sentinel Agent Manager components, using an account that is a member of the local Administrators group.

  2. (Conditional) If the computer uses Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019, perform the following steps:

    1. Open the Server Manager.

    2. In the left pane, click Features.

    3. In the right pane, click Remove Features.

    4. Expand Message Queuing > Message Queuing Services.

    5. Clear the Directory Service Integration check box.

    6. Click Next.

    7. Click Remove. The Remove Features Wizard removes the Directory Service Integration feature.

    8. Click Close.

    9. Close the Server Manager.

  3. Log off of the computer.
