SQL Server Service Account Change for Network Backup

$
0
0

Hello,

I currently have a SQL Server 2014 server running under the services with local built in accounts below:

SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) - NT Service\MSSQLSERVER

SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) - NT Service\SQLSERVERAGENT

The database backup jobs are pointing to local server storage and I would like to change this to network storage.

The server is a member of Active Directory so is it just a case of me creating a Domain User account and changing the logon account for the 2 services in SQL Server Configuration Manager?

Then give that Doman Account write access to the Network share and point the SQL backup jobs to the UNC path?

Is there anything else I need to consider or change?

Thanks for your help.
