Lesson 4 Configuring Management Server for batch jobs and email
Objective Configure the Management Server to use a specified user for its batch jobs and email.

Configuring Shared Server for batch jobs (email)

In the previous lesson we created a new Windows user that is allowed to log in as a batch job. This lesson teaches you how to configure the Management Server to use this user for its batch jobs. The attributes you will create in this lesson are called preferred credentials in the Enterprise Manager.
Follow along with the simulation to set up the credentials.
