Configuring NerveCenter to Send Microsoft Mail while Running NerveCenter Server as an Process

It is recommended that you run the NerveCenter Server as a Windows service because is simplifies accounts and other network domain concerns. See Configuring NerveCenter to Send Microsoft Mail while Running NerveCenter Server as a Service.

Should you choose, however, to run NerveCenter Server as a process, you must have a network administrator create a global group for all your NerveCenter administrators as well as a Microsoft Exchange mailbox specifically for NerveCenter.

 
  To configure NerveCenter to send Microsoft mail while running the NerveCenter Server as an application by establishing a global group:

1. Have your network administrator create a global group in the Primary Domain Controller. Include in this group any user who should have administrator privileges in NerveCenter.

   Although the account name could be anything, for ease of use it is recommended you ask your network administrator to use the name NerveCenter Admins.

2. Have your Microsoft Exchange Server administrator create a mailbox for NerveCenter purposes.

   Although the mailbox name could be anything, for ease of use it is recommended you ask your Microsoft Exchange Server administrator to use the name NerveCenter.

      The Exchange Server administrator should make sure the Primary Windows Account for this NerveCenter-designated mailbox is the NerveCenter administrators-designated global group created in step 1.

3. On each machine that will run NerveCenter Server, create a NerveCenter-designated Exchange profile to point to the machine hosting the Microsoft Exchange Server and the NerveCenter-designated mailbox created in step 1.

   Although the profile name could be anything, for ease of use it is recommended you use the name NerveCenter.

4. Open NerveCenter Administrator and connect to the appropriate NerveCenter Server. See Connecting Administrator to a NerveCenter Server on page 38.
5. Select the Actions tab.

   The Actions tab appears.

   

6. In the Exchange Profile field, type the name of the NerveCenter-designated profile created in step 4.
7. Select Save.
8. All new users assigned administrator privileges locally to a NerveCenter Admins group must be added to the global NerveCenter Administrators-designated group as well.

   Users can now include a Microsoft Mail action in their behavior models. The message will be sent from the mailbox created in step 2.
