The Health Service could not log on the RunAs account ...event ID 7000 Health Service

Hello everyone,

While using the Web Application Transaction Monitoring to monitor certain websites using specific credentials, this Event 7000 occures on the Watcher Nodes which happen to be also Management Servers.

Here are the details:

1. The Run As Accounts used are Windows account types.
2. They have been tested on the websites and are correct.
3. In the Distribution the More Secure option is selected but no object is present. They are used only for web monitoring.
4. The Web Application in WATM is using NTLM as the authentication method.
5. In Monitoring, the web application appears healthy as it is working properly and is being correctly monitored.
6. In Profiles there is a User Authentication Action Account profile created automatically and has the Run As Account. It is scoped to the management server which is also the watcher node for the web application.

The problem:

On the management server acting as a Watcher Node for the web application, in the OpsMgr log the event ID 7000 is recorded, causing a trigger for a monitor that changes the health of the Management Server to Warning. The monitor should automaticaly resolve when all Run As Accounts are validated.

Any ideeas on how to resolve this issue without overriding the monitor?

Thanks,

Marius
