After you have the desired account setup for WMI access on the AD domain controller, you can add the
account credentials to UDT. To do that, see "Adding a New AD Credential".
Adding a New AD Credential
Follow these steps to add a new AD credential into UDT.
1. Click Manage Active Directory Administrator Credentials in the UDT Credentials area in UDT
Settings (Settings > UDT Settings).
2. Click Add UDT Credential.
3.
Enter a Credential Name. For example, if this credential were the one that you want UDT to use in
retrieving event log data from an AD domain controller, you might call it Event Log Reader.
4.
Enter a User Name (Domain\Username) that is known within a specific domain.
Note: Whatever account you enter must have appropriate permissions on the AD domain controller for the
tasks for which UDT would use it. The permission required to access the Event Log is Event Log Reader. See
the section on "Defining Credentials for Polling Across Domains" if the AD domain controller for which
you are setting up UDT credentials resides in a domain outside the domain of the UDT server.
