IBM Performance Management

Configuring the Microsoft Lync Server agent

When you install the Microsoft Lync Server agent, the agent is automatically configured and started with default values in the configuration panel.

Before you begin

  • Review the hardware and software prerequisites.
  • Ensure that the user that you use to run the Microsoft Lync Server agent, is a domain user with administrator privileges and has access to all the remote servers that are listed in the Lync Server topology. Use an existing domain user with administrator privileges, or create a new domain user and assign administrator privileges to the new domain user.

About this task

You can configure the agent when the agent is running or stopped. The agent remains in the same state after configuration. For example, if the agent is running, it remains in the running state after configuration.

Procedure

To configure the agent, you can either use the IBM Performance Management window or the silent response file.

What to do next

After you configure the agent, you can change the user account from the local user to the domain user. For steps to change the user account, see Changing the user account.
