Hi,

I am trying to test out a disaster recovery set-up ; after installing the Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition on my workstation (Windows XP, service pack 2) and activating the management server and creating the required users and preferred credentials, I still get the VNI-2015 error message when trying to create a new configuration in the Data Guard Manager

(joboutput in OEM : VNI-2015 : The Node preferred credentials for the target node are either invalid
or do not have sufficient privileges to complete the operation.
On Windows platforms, the Node credentials specified for the Windows target
should have the "Logon as a batch job" privilege.)

I've tried as well with local as domain user, both of them have the 'log on as batch job' privilige !

Does anyone have an idea ? The userid contains blanks, a the password fulfills the XP requirements.

Thanks !
