You can set the same account for each SQL Server, or you can configure one account per SQL Server. Microsoft recommends setting up a service account individually for each SQL Server to provide a minimum of privileges for each service. Services and SQL Servers have the minimum permissions to perform their respective tasks. For more information, see Setting Up Windows Service Accounts (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx ) and SQL Server Configuration - Service Accounts ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281953.aspx ) in SQL Server Books Online
