MS Sql Server service accounts
Posted on 2011-03-15
I am going to installing SQL Server 2008 on a domain controller.
What account should I use for the services? and what the privileges of each account should be?
Should I use the NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM account for all services?
many thanks.

Usually the domain account has to have the right to:
lock pages in memory
Log on as service

For best performance it's not recommended to install SQL Server e.g. on domain controller.
But if you want to you can off course. Your service accounts should be domain accounts dedicated to each service. Priviledges will be granted during installation automatically.
Be aware of setting lock pages in memory policy for SQL Server service account on that domain controller, you need to wisely set up max and min server memory to avoid your server memory starving :)
Take care,

I had visited these pages before, but it wasn't clear enough (for me).
Would "Domain users" group be enough for the necessary accounts?
