1.5.1 Specifying disk drive security settings (Windows)

To set disk drive security before installing NNMi, complete the following steps:

1. Open Computer to view your disk drives.

2. For the drive you plan to use for the NNMi installation, choose Properties in the right-click menu, and then click the Security tab.

3. Log on as a user with administrator privileges, making sure that Full control is allowed (either directly or derived through group membership).

4. On the Security tab, click Advanced to open Advanced Security Settings, and make sure the Applies To field for Administrators is set to This folder, subfolders, and files. If this is not the case, change the setting.

5. Make sure that Full control is allowed for the built-in Local Service user (either directly or derived through the local users group). If this is not the case, change the setting.

6. On the Security tab, click Advanced to open Advanced Security Settings, and make sure the Applies To field for the built-in Local Service user is set to This folder, subfolders, and files. If this is not the case, change the setting.

7. Apply your changes.
