Multiple RMAs as Services

jivetolkein · Post by **jivetolkein** » Wed Oct 10, 2007 9:25 am

I have a multi domain, multi forest environment to monitor, often the mixture is on the same subnet due to acquisitions and mergers etc.

RMA agents, running as service accounts in local domains allow me to minimise risk, by only having access to servers in their local domains, and spread the load a little.

It would be really good if I could run multiple RMA agents, on 1 server, as services, under different credentials, and maybe name the services?

Application mode doesn't really cut it for me unless I'm missing something...

Cheers!

H'm...

I think its better to install each RMA on server that belongs to domain you want to monitor?
I can create new task (multiply services) but with low priority

I know what you're saying, but I prefer to have 1 server running checks, usually because it isn't too busy, or is maybe dedicated to my remote teams use (to store ISOs etc).

Low priority is better than 0
