To run EVservice, you require a computer on which Microsoft Windows 2003 or later is running.

If you intend to use EVservice to manage Enterprise Vault tasks on remote computers, ensure that the Enterprise Vault Administration Console is installed on the same computer as EVservice.

If you want to start or stop a service or Enterprise Vault task that is on a remote computer, the account that you use to run EVservice must be a member of the local administrator's group on the same computer as the service or task. If you add an account to the local administrator's group on the remote computer, you may find that you need to restart the computer before you can use EVservice.
