1.6 Domain users

The Digizuite™ setup needs two domain users. Both users must be system-users, meaning that their passwords must never expire. If it is not possible to create domain users, then create local users with same names and same passwords across the WEB server, the BATCH server and the STORAGE server:

• Storage stream user (Installer defaults to username assetstream)
  • Read file/share access to everything on storage
  • Write file/share rights to the folders (exists after completion of the installation):
    • Example: #assetstorage#\DMM\Upload
    • Example: #assetstorage#\DMM\FtpUpload
• System user (Installer defaults to username "digibatch")
  • Full file/share access to the storage 
    • Example: #assetstorage#
  • Must be able to start Windows services on the WEB server and the BATCH server
  • Must be a part of the group: "Performance Monitor Users"
    

Note: #assetstorage# refers to either the local storage (Example: D:\Storage) or to an UNC path if this is a multiple server installation (Example: \\<servername>\<share>)

1.7 DNS lookup

To perform the Digizuite™ installation and have the Digizuite™ ready for operation, you need to determine any of the URLs below required for your specific setup AND create the necessary DNS records:

• Digizuite™ DAM administration tool URL
  • Example: digizuite.mycompany.com
