Installing and Configuring on Windows Environments
3.18.2 Starting the eG Agent on Windows 2008/7/Vista
The eG agents on the following platforms require 'administrator' privileges to start:
Windows 2008 (32-bit and 64-bit)
Windows 7
Windows Vista
In Windows 2008/Windows 7 systems therefore, follow the Start -> Programs -> eG Monitoring Suite
-> eG Agent menu sequence, right-click on the Start Agent menu option, and pick the Run as
administrator option (see Figure 3.196).

In case of Windows Vista, click on Start Search on the task bar of the agent host, right-click on Command
Prompt, and then select the Run as administrator option, as depicted by Figure 3.197. This implies that
the command that is issued at the command prompt soon after, will be executed with administrator
privileges.
