Summary

Does the AgilePoint Administrator need to have local Administrator privileges?

I used a user with local Administrators privileges to install AgilePoint and acts as the initial AgilePoint Administrator, now I want to change to another account as the AgilePoint Administrator, does this account require local Administrators privileges?

No, the AgilePoint Administrator does not need to have local Administrators privileges.

Details

The identity (such as: the identity in the Application Pool) that runs AgilePoint Server needs to be in the local Administrators group to have the privileges to access local system and resources such as write privilege to the local file system. However, the AgilePoint Administrator does not need to have local Administrators privileges.
