Error 1923. Service '[Service]' could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services" error message

Hi

after uninstalling Netbackup ver 7.1 I got the client to install Netbackup ver 7.5, however as the installation progresses it looks like it starts to install the services and I get the error above in the subject line, is there a way of getting around this error without having to reboot the server.

thanks

So, this is a NBU upgrade to version 7.5?

Which OS?

If W2008, have you verified requirements w.r.t. UAC in NetBackup Installation Guide for Windows ? 

Note: To install NetBackup on Windows 2008/Vista and

Windows 2008 R2/Windows 7 UAC-enabled environments,

you must log on as the official administrator. Users that are

assigned to the Administrators Group and are not the official

administrator cannot install NetBackup in UAC-enabled

environments. To allow users in the Administrators Group

to install NetBackup, disable UAC.

If I remember correctly, disabling UAC requires a reboot...
