Backup Exec 12.5 "Log On As" Account
Good day everyone. I am currently going through and cleaning up a lot of the services on servers that were running with "Log On As" credentials of our old server admin.
I was planning on creating a an account with domain admin permissions to be used specifically for services that would require to use a "Log On As" account on the domain.
Would this be good practice or can the below services be associated with "Network Services" or "Local System" credentials?

One question. I was looking at using the domain "Administrator" account for these services as it seems that it requires domain admin for many of these services. Would that be good practice or should I create a separate domain account specific to backup exec?
If a separate account would be recommended, does the account only require domain admin permissions or would other permissions need to be added to it? The links above do not specifically describe any of this.
