Step 1: Grant Full Control of the Deployment Share to Your
Service Account
If your Deployment Share was created during the installation, grant the services account
full control of this share. By default, this folder is C:\Program
Files\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server.
Step 2: Create Domain Join and Deployment Share Accounts
After installation, we recommend creating some additional accounts. These accounts are
different than the accounts used by the people who are going to manage computers.
These accounts are not tied to users, and should not possess interactive login or any
rights beyond what is recommended here.
The domain join account is used to join or re-join computers to a domain after imaging
or initial deployment. The Deployment Share read/write account is used to access this
share from the automation environment.
Domain Join Accounts
Create a separate domain-level account for each domain in which you
manage computers, granting the rights recommended in the following
table:
Rights Description
