Permissions and privileges
Database permissions
The account used to connect to the database during the installation requires DB_CREATOR rights to
create the databases. Upon completion of the installation, this permission can be removed.
If the installer is to overwrite pre-existing databases (as opposed to creating new databases), then the
account used to connect to the database needs to be a member of the DB_OWNER role.
Kofax TotalAgility Prerequisites
10
The same account specified during the installation is used to connect to the database at runtime. The
runtime privileges required by this account are db_datareader, db_datawriter and Execute permissions.
After installation, the service account is granted the db_owner role in the database.
Note For a list of supported databases, see the Technical Specifications document, which is available
on the Kofax website at www.kofax.com.
Privileges to run Kofax TotalAgility components
The privileges required for running various Kofax TotalAgility components are based upon the "Principle of
Least Privilege."
The installation privileges are different than those required to run TotalAgility. Installing TotalAgility
requires administrator privileges.
All the Service accounts require certain privileges.
Local Policies Permissions
1. Log on as Administrator and open a Command Prompt window.
2. Run the following command: secpol.msc
3. Under Security Settings, navigate to Local Policies, click User Rights Assignment, and ensure
the account has following permissions:
Allow logon locally
Log on as a service
Bypass traverse checking
You must have read and write permissions on the ProgramData folder, and enumerate the network
user accounts against a domain. When the AppPool user changes, permissions to the ProgramData
folder must be granted manually.
When a split Web Application server is deployed, and Kerberos is being used, enable the computer and
the user account used by IIS to be trusted for delegation.
The service account under which the Transformation Server service runs must have the administrative
privileges on the server.
The service account under which the Streaming service runs must have permissions to register a URL
and reserve a namespace for it. If it is a non-admin account, the local machine administrator needs to
do these for the service account. See the TotalAgility Installation Guide.
The license service can be run under a non-admin account. The non-admin account should have
permission to open a WCF listener. If it is running under a non-admin account on a non- standard port,
you should reserve a namespace for it. To do so, on the Command Prompt, run the following command
using an account that has administrator rights on the local machine:
netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:3581/SAL user=%domainuser%
netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:3581/SALMetadata user=%domainuser%"
When you run the Import Connector with a non-admin account, the following permissions are required:

Appendix A
Additional details
This section provides additional checks for various installation types, including prerequisites for the
integration components.
Calculate memory requirements
The computer running Transformation Server must have sufficient memory to keep multiple extraction and
classification groups cached in memory. Transformation Server maximizes memory utilization and uses
any free memory to run and cache additional extraction processes.
In addition to the memory requirements for the operating system, memory is required for the
Transformation Server based on the size of the extraction and classification groups and the number of
slots you have available. To calculate the minimum amount of memory needed for Transformation Server,
do the following:
1. Determine the number of slots available. During installation, Transformation Server can calculate the
number of slots automatically using this formula:
Number of processor cores * 1.25
For a quad core processor, you have five slots.
You can also specify the number of slots during installation.
2. Calculate the minimum amount of memory using this formula:
200 MB + (average extraction process size * number of slots)
The extraction process size is the amount of memory needed for a single extraction process, which
depends on the complexity of classification and extraction groups. Typically, these are 150–200 MB,
but can be as large as 500 MB. To find out the exact sizes, examine the processes in Windows Task
Manager and look for the instances of ExtractionProcess.exe.
For example, if you are processing large extraction and classification groups and have five slots of
available, calculate the minimum amount of memory as shown:
200 MB + (250 MB * 5) = 1450 MB or 1.42 GB
These are minimum requirements. Additional memory can improve system performance.

When using the CCM (Customer Communication Manager) Interactive form control, browsers prevent
cross-domain HTTP requests to the CCM server made from a form hosted on the Kofax TotalAgility
server. The CCM Proxy allows cross-domain communication and uses the CCM control to generate
documents.
Note To use CCM functionality, you must run the installer on every Web server that is in use. Ensure
that the Microsoft plug-in, Web Platform Installer, is installed before you add the CCM Proxy Web
server.
