eDiscovery installation requires domain account

SYMPTOMS

Some eDiscovery configurations are performed on a stand-alone computer. If you use a local admin account instead of a domain account, you will not have access to the global settings or security settings, and subsequently not be unable to process matters.

CAUSE

Domain account required for installation

RESOLUTION

• If you want to create a stand-alone eDiscovery server you will need to make the machine a domain controler.
• Add Domain Controler role
• Add a domain service account
• Log in as that user (service account)
• Use wizard to configure the AD connection string correctly for ZyINDEX
• Reinstall Legal Processing as service account
• You should be able to log in properly to Legal Processing after the above steps.
