Preparing SQL Server account for the management server

Decide whether the management server will use Windows Authentication or SQL Server
Authentication to connect to the SQL Server. Do one of the following, depending on your choice.

Windows Authentication

If Windows Authentication will be used, create local administrator accounts with the same user
name and password on the machine running SQL Server and the machine where the management
server will be installed.

After the installation, you can remove the account from the Administrators group on the SQL Server
machine. On the management server machine, the account must remain a local administrator.

SQL Server Authentication

If SQL Server Authentication will be used, create a SQL Server login account that is a member of the
sysadmin server role. When creating the account, clear the User must change password at next
login and Enforce password expiration check boxes.

During the installation, the account will become a member of the db_owner database role for the
management server databases (their names start with acronis). After the installation, you can
remove the account from the sysadmin server role.
