We are reinstalling a server with MS SQL 2008 on a Windows 2008 R2 server.
This time we want to assign seperate domaing accounts with the least privilages on each service.
After reading the documentation:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143219(v=sql.100).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281953(d=printer,v=sql.100).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144228(v=sql.100).aspx
My understanding is that I will create one new domain account for each one of the following:
1) SQL Server Agent
2) SQL Server
3) Analysis Service
4) Reporting Services
5) Integration Service
Also, I will not need to give manually any privilages on any of the accounts, as it is my understading, the privileges will be given by SQL Server setup process.
Is it this simple? I hope it is, since the documentation does not describe any particular privilages need to be granted manually by installer.
If not, please help me providing a link that will guide me in setting proviliges for each service account.
Thanks!
