Authentication happens on the Notification Server computer where Real-Time
System Manager is installed.
When you use Real-Time System Manager, the following authentication points
apply:
When you try to access the Symantec Management Console or the Resource
Manager page, Notification Server verifies that the user has the rights to access
Real-Time System Manager. You can access the console either as a user who
is interactively logged on to the Notification Server computer or as a user who
is connected to the Notification Server computer remotely through a browser.
In case of an interactively logged on user, the Windows logon information is
passed to Notification Server. When a computer is managed locally from a
target computer, the Internet Explorer credentials are used.
By default, Real-Time System Manager uses the Notification Server Application
Identity credentials (WMI Credential for Default Connection Profile) to
connect to remote computers. If the Notification Server Application Identity
account has no administrator rights to access the remote computer, the
connection fails. Create a new connection profile with correct credentials.
