    Hello Community

        SQL Server 2008 R2 allows installing when using the Admin account on
    a Windows Server 2008 R2 member server administration account but the question is
    can you install SQL Server 2008 R2 on a Windows Server 2008 R2  after the member
    server has joined the domain with a domain user account?

        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    Hello,

    You can use the local Administrator account still and you can use a domain account also, but remember to assign a strong password to those account since it is required by SQL Server setup.  

    Hope this helps.
