Service Account

A service account is used to enable the Data Refresh capability in TrueSight Server Automation. In TrueSight Server Automation, this capability monitors jobs that affect the status of the missing patches and regularly updates the job data in BMC Helix Automation Console.

The user that you specify in the service account must be assigned to roles with permissions to read information from the Server Automation application server. The service account user is specified during installation. If the user does not exist in the endpoint manager or invalid credentials are specified, you are asked to add the account when you log in to the BMC Helix Automation Console user interface for the first time. 

In this release, a single service account is used for a single instance of BMC Helix Automation Console.
