Configuring the SQL Server Agent

The primary configuration settings for the SQL Server Agent are located within the Object Explorer and SQL Server Configuration Manager. Most of the settings that define how the SQL Server Agent will execute are defined via the SQL Server Agent Properties accessible from the Object Explorer. The SQL Server Configuration Manager contains settings related to the SQL Server Agent’s service. The service settings are limited but contain important properties such as the Startup Account for the SQL Server Agent.
