Best practices in MS-CRM Installation: Service Accounts

MSCRM Service Accounts:

I am installing MS-CRM on a server running windows server 2008 R2, and another server hosting the SQL2012 running on windows server 2012 

during the installation of CRM2011, this screen will appear 

Now I will show how to succeed in adding valid accounts : 

NA: you dont have to stick to the naming below, but Always  give clear names

1. CRM Application Service Account
• Name: CRMAppSvcAcc
• Add to Performance Log Users group
• Add to  local Administrators group
2. CRM Deployment Web Service Account
• Name: CRMDeploySvcAcc
• Add to Performance Log Users group
• Add to  local Administrators group
3. CRM Sandbox Processing Service Account
• Name: CRMSandboxSvcAcc
• Add to Performance Log Users group
4. CRM Asynchronous Processing Service Account
• Name: CRMAsyncSvcAcc
• Add to Performance Log Users group

If you are using a Server for MS-CRM and a Server for MS-SQL then make sure to add the users to groups on both servers, else you will see this error

Good Luck :)

I am ready for any questions
