Agent Client Collector Installation Fails

We are currently piloting the Agent Client Collector for Visibility so far has been relatively successful. We attempted to install the agent on 2 different Windows Servers that are not AD Domain Joined (Workgroup) and were met with an agent installation failed message noting there was a problem creating the default "servicenow" user. On our domain joined servers this has not been a problem. Oddly, it does create the ServiceNow group, just not the user account.

 

We also tried to create a local account and use that in place of the default servicenow account and the installer would not allow us to proceed stating it was not a valid account. 

 

We attempted to use LocalService and the installation was able to complete successfully. 

 

Has anyone else come across this problem before and what did you do to resolve?
