Enabled a JetStream in this configuration, but getting the following error:

Not allowed to enable JetStream on the system account

if I use the AALVUUUOCQSLPPFVLUTEWTL2WDMDLEGIXPWLPTTJRJCYTD466LISWII6 account (non-enabled JetStream one) as system_account it works.

Thing is that I need to have both system_account (to listen websocket connected events) and JetStream on the same account. Do you know why it isn't allow and maybe there is a way to enable it? Thanks!

I see that there is explicit check for it here:

nats-server/server/server.go

Line 2353 in 5fba928

// Make sure someone is not trying to enable on the system account.

Interesting to know why is it so and how can I achieve to have both:

• Listen web socket connect/disconnect events
• Have kv store, streams in the same account

[wallyqs]

you would have to export the subjects from the system account onto another account that has jetstream enabled via an import

[playerx]

Oh gatcha, let me try

[playerx]

Perfect, works 👌🏻

JetStream is a system service provided by the system account. So a bit of chicken and egg problem as to why the system account itself can not have JetStream assets,
