PRB: Array credential test or usage fails on non-domain installation

The Array properties > Credentials "Test credentials" check fails with a known valid account.

Windows security (UAC) does not grant true administrative permission to local administrator accounts.

The best practice resolution to this issue is to join the server to a domain and use domain security.

If the server must be outside a domain, you can resolve the issue by disabling UAC on the server.

In RegEdit, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Set the value of the DWORD entry EnableLUA to 0 (zero)
Restart the server.

As always exercise due care when editing the Registry.
