​DBAs - Do you name your SQL Server Domain Account as 'SQLServerMachineName' so it is easily identified when performing network operations?

Loading last updated info...

When you create the domain accounts under which SQL Server services run, you should name this domain account as "SQLServerMachineName".

E.g. SSW2000\SQLServerDragon

If one of the SQL Server services updates a file on the network, then you can then determine which server wrote to the file.
