Using Microsoft Group Managed Service Accounts to run Qlik Sense services

Has Anyone tried using Microsoft Group Managed Service Accounts to run Qlik Sense services on the nodes?

Curious to see if this has been tested and if so what the results were. @

Hi bnbarbre

I quickly converted my QA environment to run services in all the nodes with gMSA except the repository Database service, I was having some trouble with postgresql to run with this account so i let that service still run under the (local system account). So far I don't see any issues all nodes able to communicate with each other as usual and don't see any issues yet. will keep you posted if i discover anything new.

Thanks,
