Server
Configuration
Click Use the same account for all SQL Server services and enter the NT

It is possible to use a domain account for SQL Server services. A domain account
might be required for split installations, because the SQL Server Agent might need
access to the Collector for some activities. If you use a domain account, you should
use a local administrator on the SQL Server machine to access DBServices.
Otherwise, you must grant manual permissions.
