A.4 Windows File Server Cluster

File Reporter supports clustering of Windows Server through Proxy Agents. Configuring a cluster to be scanned through a proxy agent is similar to configuring an individual server to be scanned by a proxy agent.

To support proxy-based scanning, the File Reporter proxy rights group must be granted membership in the built-in Administrators group and granted all of the required LSA user rights on each cluster node. When this is done, the folder share permissions and NTFS permissions that are required must be granted to the proxy rights group for all shares and NTFS volumes that will be scanned by File Reporter.
