TWS job failing. ERROR jobmon was unable to retrieve user information - tivoli-work-scheduler

I am configuring TWS job in one of our application windows server but when the job triggered it is throwing the below exception. I am using domain user to execute the job.
AWSBDW079E Jobman could not run the job because the system call used to launch the job failed: Jobmon was unable to retrieve user information.
Do I need any special permissions for the user to run the job.
Any help?

On Windows, TWS needs userid and password in order to impersonate the user.
You have to specify the USER object with the appropriate Workstation name, userid and password.
Using Dynamic Agents there are also other options using Executable job types, e.g. you can store the password locally on the agent with the parm utility.

I have figured out the issue. The issue was with the user permissions. The user which is used to run the job on the workstation must have the below permissions.
Allow log on locally
Log on as a batch job

SQL Server Agent Jobs to Run SSIS Package

I have a SSIS package which i tried to schedule as a job in SQL Server Agent.
In order to achieve this i have created a Credentials with User having SysAdmin role to the server. Also i have created a proxy account to run the job where the principals added for
SQLServerAgent,SQLServerOperator,SQLServerReader.
While configuring job selected package source as File system and given the package path to execute the same.
Package is running good and updating results to table stand alone but not working when executing via SQL Job.
Error:
The process could not be created for step 1 of job 0x7D722F8836388B46956B164E33DE8955 (reason: A required privilege is not held by the client). The step failed.,00:00:00,0,0,,,,0
Fix Tried: Modified the package security with Encryptallwithpassword and no luck still.
Check your SQL Server Agent service account to make sure it has permissions to the database and the folder where the packages are being called from.
The proxy account is the user that the package will run as, so make sure that is selected in the job step.
For package encryption, unless you are saving credentials in the package, you can set the protection level to "DontSaveSensitive". It sounds like the proxy account will have the permissions you need already assigned.

Pass through admin credentials in PowerShell to edit registry

I'm trying to edit the registry from a PowerShell script which will run on startup (through the task scheduler). Since the domain account I'm using does not have privileges I'm getting an error. Can I pass through credentials for a local admin account within the script?
Note: I need a solution that won't raise a user prompt for username/password. The script is supposed to be automated without need for user input.

SQL2012 proxy has no permissions to write to SSISDB

I have a package which runs under a service account which i have given proxy permissions to in SSIS Package Execution. However, when it starts to run i get the following error
Cannot open database "SSISDB" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'ServiceAcountXXX'.
I am assuming that the service account has no access to the SSISDB database to record all that execution logging information. I thought that giving it the SSIS Package Execution access would automatically do that. Does anyone know what permissions I still need to give the service account so it will run ? When i ran the sql agent this wasn't an issue.

If I understand correctly, you've authorized a proxy to execute jobsteps of type SSIS. The remaining step, is to grand the credentials account for your proxy the ssis_admin role in the SSISDB catalog.

How to allow a user permission to recycle an application pool in IIS 6?

Is it possible to give a (non admin) user permissions to recycle a specific application pool? This is specifically for IIS 6.
I found a kind of round about way to get this done, as I couldn't find a simple way either. There may be some security concerns I've missed, so I would approach this with caution. My scenario involved a trusted, non-malicious user who requested less access.
I created a batch file with the command to reset the app pool in IIS. From there I created a single run scheduled task to run that batch file with an administrator user set up on the scheduled task. I then gave the required user read,write,and execute security permissions on that scheduled task.
I then gave the user read permission on c:\windows\tasks through the cacls command line utility. This then let that user access the scheduled tasks in control panel. From there, he could manually execute the scheduled task to reset the app pool. It works since the scheduled task is running under admin privileges.
You'll want to make sure that the user doesn't have access to modify the batch file, otherwise, you've basically given them an admin command prompt. If the scheduled task is modified, the password has to be reentered (at least on my server 2003 machine) so they can't just point the task to any executable.

Whose logon is being used in a SQL Server 2008 Agent Job

I have an SSIS package that transfers some tables to CSV files on a network drive; it runs fine from my computer manually. I store it on the server in the MSDB database and execute it from there and it runs fine, but when I create a job that has one step that runs the SSIS package from MSDB it fails saying it can't find the CSV file name.
I spent all day yesterday figuring out this means a permissions issue with whatever logon credentials are being used through the job. The job owner shows to be domain/myuserid and step properties show they are using windows authentication with my username. The problem is, I know I have access to this folder.
The first line of the error log says: "Executed as user: servername\SYSTEM". So I made sure user "SYSTEM" has access to the network folder I want to load the files on, but I still get the same error.
The command line looks like #command=N'/SQL "\SSIS package name" /SERVER servername /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E'
edit: I found SQL Server agent job account issue where someone asks who the job is run under and marc_s says "I can't seem to find any definitive answers on that one, really. Since my Jobs typically select and update stuff in the database, I am lead to assume that the "Owner" account will be used by default, unless you specify some other account on a given step"
Which also leads me to believe it is using my logon information that has access
The best practice that we've been able to come up with here is to make a domain account for SSIS and then set up a Proxy in SQL Server that is used to run the SSIS Package in a SQL Job.
I would say that the servername\SYSTEM account is a local account, and therefore won't have access to network folders on other servers.
You probably want to run this as a domain account of some sort, which does have access.
Typically this will be the SQL Server Agent, so check in the Services list, in the control panel, and see what account is running the agent, and if necessary change it to the appropriate account.
This may have knock on consequences though, so be careful what other jobs are running.
