Run As Profiles

This topic describes the Run As profiles in the AppFabric Management Pack, and shows how AppFabric monitors, rules, discoveries, and tasks are associated with Run As profiles.

Run As Profiles in the AppFabric Management Pack

Three Run As profiles are available in this Management Pack.

AppFabric SQL Database Reader Account

If you are using Windows Authentication to secure your monitoring database, this account will need to be a part of the MonitoringDbReader SQL role. This account will also need to have access to the IIS configuration files for the WCF and WF services that you are managing with AppFabric. In a single-computer installation of AppFabric that is configured with the defaults, members of the local AS_Observers group have the correct permissions.

This profile is used to discover IIS web sites, applications, and services. It is also used to discover database connections and to monitor web service health.

AppFabric SQL Database Admin Account

If you are using Windows Authentication to secure your monitoring database, this account will need to be a part of the MonitoringDbAdmin SQL role. This profile is used to monitor the health of the monitoring database.

AppFabric Cache Cluster Admin Account

This account will need access to the cache configuration store. This profile is used to monitor AppFabric caches using the Caching Administration tools.

Associations with Run As Profiles

The following table indicates how particular monitors, rules, discoveries, and tasks are associated with a Run As profile. If Default is listed, the monitor, rule, discovery, or task is run using the default action account for the agent or server.
