Its running against the correct account .

To make sure that we understand each other: What is a DCS service?

If you mean the QlikView DSC service (Directory Service Connector), and your DSC consistently refuses to start, something serious may be off. Open the most recent DSC log in C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\DirectoryServiceConnector\Log (the log files have a file name that carries the date) and check for any fatal errors, or post the latest log in this thread.

It could be as simple as a Domain Controller suddenly being unreachable or something like that.

Is the service actually running (services.msc) OR is it that QMC is reporting it as down?
