· We collected the SQL agent logs and saw the following errors

· Just a test changed the startup account from the local system to a domain account and subsequently added it to the sysadmin server role which enabled SQL agent services to start up

· SQL server services inspite of having local system account as its startup , was working fine but SQL Agent on the other hand failed to startup with local system account

· We then Checked the following permissions for the service account under secpol.msc (local security policy)

  • Act as Part of the Operating System

  • Bypass Traverse Checking

  • Lock Pages In Memory

  • Log on as a Batch Job

 • Log on as a Service

 • Replace a Process Level Token

· We added the "SYSTEM" account to all these permissions and we were able to start it up successfully
