After the Log Analyzer Server has been installed and the database has been created, the environment of the server will be constructed. The environment setup of the server is composed of the environment construction operation on the Management Server/Master Management Server and the environment construction operation on the Log Analyzer Server.
Please perform the following preparations on servers before environment construction work.
Preparation 1: Create shared folder (operations on Log Analyzer Server)
In order to collect logs and administrators’ information on the Management Server/Master Management Server, it is required to create shared folders on the Log Analyzer Server.
Please use the full path and create shared folders no greater than 140 bytes. In addition, please perform the following security-related settings for the folders:
Set the number of users allowed to be connected equal to the number of sets of Management Server/Master Management Server.
Please set the user name that belongs to the Administrator group or the Domain Admins group to full control in the user with connection permission.
In the security setting of shared folders, set the following groups and users to full control:
Users set as “User with Connection Permission”.
Administrators group
SYSTEM user
The shared folders created here will be used in the settings of the Log Analyzer and data transfer commands later.
Please specify the format of shared network folder name (\\IP address\folder path) specified in the “Log Analyzer Settings” window.
Please specify the local path of shared folders in “Data Transfer Command”.
Preparation 2: Create target folder for saving logs temporarily (operations on Management Server/Master Management Server)
The target folder for saving logs temporarily needs to be created on the Management Server/Master Management Server.
Please specify the target folder for saving logs temporarily with a full path no greater than 140 bytes. In addition, the shared folder created in Preparation 1 cannot be used as the target folder for saving logs temporarily.
For an estimation of disk capacity required for the target folder for saving logs temporarily, please refer to the “Operating Environment” of “Systemwalker Desktop Keeper User’s Guide”, and refer to the “Estimating temporary disk capacity required for sending log data”.
Preparation 3: Confirm [IP Address] of self-node in the [Server Information Settings] window (operation on Management Server/Master Management Server)
In the server information settings of the Management Server/Master Management Server, when the self-node IP address is set to the loop back address “127.0.0.1”, please update it to the correct IP address before the following operations.
For the setting method, please refer to “2.2.5.4 Set Server Information ”.
Set the Log Analyzer Server link with the Management Server/Master Management Server on the Management Server/Master Management Server, and transfer the logs and the administrator information collected on the Management Server/Master Management Server to the environment of the Log Analyzer Server.
Settings performed on the Management Server/Master Management Server are as follows:
Set the connection environment of the Log Analyzer Server
Transfer the administrator information to the Log Analyzer Server
Register the information of the Log Analyzer Server.
Set connection environment of Log Analyzer Server
The following settings should be performed on the Management Server/Master Management Server.
Select [All Programs] - [Systemwalker Desktop Keeper] - [Server] - [Log Analyzer Settings] from the [Start] menu.

Transfer administrator information to Log Analyzer Server on Management Server/Master Management Server
Use the log transmission command (TRANS.bat) to transfer the administrator information set in the Management Server/Master Management Server. The transmission procedure is as follows:
Note
About execution in Windows Vista®, Windows Server® 2008 or Windows®
When executing the command under Windows Vista®, Windows Server 2008® or Windows® 7, please execute the command in the command prompt as an administrator.
Note
Please transfer administrator information in the time frame when services can be stopped.
When TRANS.bat has been executed, when saving or sending administrator information, the following service of management server will stop. Therefore, please execute in the time frame when services can be stopped.
SWLevelControlService
SWServerService
In addition, after starting SWServerService or at date change (12am), confirmation of available database capacity can be performed. In the 15 minutes till the confirmation operation has finished, service may not be able to be stopped.
Therefore, please do not transfer at the above time frame.
In the Management Server/Master Management Server, log on to Windows with a user that belongs to the Administrators group or a user that belongs to the Domain Admins group.
