Starting ElasticSearch service with a service account

Description

In some production environments, service accounts are used to run Enterprise Manager services. In order for the ElasticSearch to run it creates a tmp directory from the account it was installed under, this can cause the service to not run if you try starting the service as a different user. there are two ways you can get this service to run, the first way is to install Enterprise Manager as the service account by either logging in and installing the exe or right clicking the exe and selecting ” run as different user”. Another way to get this service to run is to go into the C:\Program Files\exacqVision\EnterpriseManager\Elasticsearch\bin , you must run elasticsearch-service-enterprise-manager.bat go to java options and change the user from this line

Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\Users\UserAccount\AppData\Local\Temp\elasticsearch
