Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Domain Service Accounts for Configuratiemanager LAB Installation. For the System Center-configuratiemanager (SCCM) deployment, we need to create some domain service accounts.
For successful LAB installation, we need 1 SCCM account (client and apps installation) and 3 SQL accounts (agent, service, reporting services). In this post, I show step-by-step User and Organization Unit Active Directory (AD) object creation but create all four accounts.
1. log in to your Domain Controller, Left Mouse Button to click on the Begin button, in the apps list find Ramen Administrative Tools;
2. Next click on Active Directory Users and Computers;
3. Before user creation, we need to create some Organization Unit (OU). Right Mouse Button click on the domain name, klik New, and select Organization Unit;
4. Give it the name Service Accounts and click the OK button;
5. Next, create another OU to divide service accounts by service. Right Mouse Button click on OU, klik New and select Organization Unit;
6. Enter the name for OU (SQL) en klik OK;
7. Create another OU Systeemcentrum;
8. Let’s create an Active Directory object – User. I create a service account for SCCM. Right Mouse Button click on OU Systeemcentrum, klik New, and select User;
9. Enter First name, Last name, and User logon name (using your naming policies). Klik the Next button;
10. Enter the password, uncheck the User must change password at next logon, en plaats het vinkje Wachtwoord never expires. Click the Next button;
