Setting the seeadmin User Privileges

You may need to configure the new seeadmin user account to function in the Windows environment.

The following guidelines should be used when determining if the seeadmin user has sufficient privileges:

  • Verify that the seeadmin user is a member of the Administrators group as described in Creating the seeadmin User. This group assignment is necessary to administer WebSphere, and the SIMULIA Execution Engine database.

  • If the seeadmin user is going to be used to start a SIMULIA Execution Engine station when the SIMULIA Execution Engine database has Run-As security enabled, the seeadmin user must be granted the privilege Replace a process level token. For more information, see Configuring Station (Run-As) Security.

  • If you add a user to a new group or grant it a privilege, the change does not take effect until you log out and log in again as that user. Groups assignments and privileges are checked only during the logon process.
