There are good days and bad but my AppID account lockouts still persist. When this happens, it's almost impossible to get into IT Analytics whether it be the Configuration page or any dashboard/cube/report. I was wondering if ALL of the credentials for ITA can be changed to use something other than the AppID so I can avoid this account lockout madness where ITA is concerned?
The ITA configuration page shows stored credentials under the Reporting Server section although I don't see something similar for the Analysis Server so thought perhaps what I'm proposing is not possible? I'm hitting SQL off-box where I see my AppID being used for both the Reporting and Analysis services. If I am able to use a different domain account for ITA, what kind of permissions does it need and what am I supposed to do on the SQL server as well as in my SMC?
ITA is not an absolute must but nice to have. For example, it has an Add/Remove Programs report with all apps listed in my environment whereas I can't seem to find something similar in any of the regular Altiris reports (or more accurately, programs seem to be missing. e.g. Microsoft Office Standard...). At least for me, getting/keeping ITA running through various SMP upgrades has always been a challenge so hopefully I'll be able to change what credentials ITA uses to reliably get to its reports/dashboards/cubes. Thanks in advance!
