Creating a SQL login account
The Vault Service account must have a SQL login account for the SQL Server, with the required permissions.
To create a SQL login account
- Start SQL Server Management Studio.
- In the tree, select Security>Logins.
- Right-click Logins, and select New Login.
- Either type in the Vault Service account as domain\username or click Search and search for the account. In the search dialog box, ensure that the correct domain is entered in the Locations box.
- Select Windows authentication.
- In the tree, click Server roles.
- Select the check box beside dbcreator.
- Click OK.
- In the toolbar, click New Query.
- Enter the following script:
use Master GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE TO "domain\vsa_account" GRANT ALTER ANY LOGIN TO "domain\vsa_account" GRANT VIEW ANY DEFINITION TO "domain\vsa_account" GO
where domain\vsa_account is the domain and name of the Vault Service account.
- Click Execute.
- You can check that the Vault Service account has the dbcreator role as follows:
In the tree, select Security > Server Roles.
In the right-hand pane, double-click the dbcreator role.
The Vault Service account should be displayed in the membership list.
- You can check that the Vault Service account has the correct permissions as follows:
In the tree, right-click the top level SQL Server object and select Properties.
Select the Permissions page.
Under Logins or roles, select the Vault Service account and then click Effective Permissions. Check that VIEW SERVER STATE, ALTER ANY LOGIN, and VIEW ANY DEFINITION are included in the list of permissions.
