binarylab Posted January 25, 2015 Report post Posted January 25, 2015 I'm installing SQL Server 2012 for ConfigMgr 2012 r2 and I wonder what is the best practice for SQL service accounts. During the installation of SQL Server, in the server configuration/Service accounts menu I'm allowed to configure following service accounts: SQL Server Agent, SQL Server Agent Database Engine, SQL Server Reporting Services, SQL Server Browser. Do I have to create separate domain user (not admin) accounts for each service and configure service principal name (SPN) for all of them? For example: Domain user account named SQLSA for SQL Server Agent, another domain user account SQLADBE for SQL Server Agent Database Engine etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
