Creating Admin Account

Last updated: 2024-09-05 12:23:19
    This document describes how to create an admin account for a TencentDB for SQL Server instance in the console.

    Admin account description

    The System Admin (SA) role is the most privileged role in SQL Server. It can perform any operations in SQL Server without passing any security checks. TencentDB for SQL Server single-node (formerly Basic Edition) instances allow you to create an admin account with the SA privilege, so you can use the account to quickly adapt offline software and move it to the cloud. Currently, the admin account cannot be directly created via the console. If necessary, submit a ticket to obtain a solution.
    Warning:
    Once an admin account is created for an instance, the sysadmin privilege is enabled, and the product SLA will no longer be guaranteed for the instance. Database instances that do not have admin accounts with the SA privilege are not affected.
    You can create only one SA account for each instance.

    Directions

    1. Log in to the TencentDB for SQL Server console. Click an instance ID or Manage in the Operation column to access the instance management page.
    2. On the instance management page, select Account Management > Create Account and enter relevant information in the pop-up window. After confirming that everything is correct, click OK.
