    Hi Guys,

    Looking for a shortcut answer here before I have to trawl through the installation guide:

    Is it recommended that the vCenter Server services run under an LSA, or domain account? And if under a domain admin account, would all the services need to run under this account, or just some of them?

    Thanks

    You can use local administrator or domain administrator

    With vSphere 6.x, there are virtual accounts created for the services and needs to have NT SERVICE\All Services group on the local machine not having the Log on as a service right,
