Rev: 1.1
Date: 12/14/2007

Problem

You would like to set the "view filter" in Service Account Manager to show specific services only but those services are not listed in the available services field.

Cause

By default Service Account Manager draws its list of "available services" from the machine on which Service Account Manager is installed. In this case, the services you wish to filter for are not installed on the local system.

Resolution

Open the service filter dialog by selecting "Filter..." from the VIEW menu.



From the Filter Services List, enter the target machine’s name in the dialogue box ‘Server to get service list from:’ and select the ‘Refresh’ button:



You should now see the ‘missing’ services included in the list of ‘Available Services’.

Select the service then select the ADD button. Once you click ADD, the service will move form the "available services" field and into the "Filter" field.



Select to display "Filter List Only" in the top left corner of this display. Then click OK to close the dialog and continue. When your systems list reappears, the only service(s) showing will be the service(s) that you chose to display.

Select the GET button in the main service list to acquire the latest information on the state of your services.

Note: Any systems in the list that do not have the filtered services installed on them will show the service as "Not Installed" in the "state column"

How to add Service Dependencies to Services with Service Account Manager

Rev: 2.0
Date: 10/24/2007

Problem

You may encounter application or service failures because a required service could not/did not start in a timely fashion or at all. For example a web site must be able to authenticate users but the Netlogon service needs to be started prior to attempting to start the Wide Web Publishing Service.

Resolution

In order to address this issue, you must be able to manipulate the dependencies of your services. Specifically you need to identify that the Wide Web Publishing Service has a dependency on the Netlogon service.

To add a dependency to a service (based on the preceding example):

1. Open Service Account Manager and activate the systems list which contains the computer(s) you wish to manage.
2. Select highlight the service(s) in the list you wish to mange and click the SET button at the center of the dialog.
   
   Note: You may wish to use the VIEW | FILTER option to filter your service list to only display the service(s) you are going to update.
   
   Note: After you click SET, you will receive a warning that you are about to modify services and that the changes you make may cause problems. Click OK if you wish to continue.
   
   
   
3. In the SET dialog (Set Service Account Properties), select the checkbox next to "Config Options" on the left side of the dialog, then click the ellipses (...) next to config options.
   
   
   
4. In the Service COnfiguration Options dialog, select the option to "change Dependencies" followed by "Add Dependencies".
   
5. Click the new item button on the right side of the dialog (sqaure next to red X) and type in the new service dependency. The name used is the internal name of the service. By performing this step, you are making your target service dependant on the services you add to this dialog. This means the services you add here must be started prior to your target service. Repeat this step as necessary.
   
6. Click OK when you have configured all of your desired options.
   
   
   
7. Click APPLY in the lower left corner to make the change occur immediately or click SCHEDULE to schedule the change to occur or recur at a later date.
   
   Note: Use of the scheduling feature requires Service Account Manager's deferred processor to be installed.
