For security reasons, we want to change the password that starts the SQL Server service everyday. Is it possible to do this without restarting the service?
If it is possible will the changes be immediately applied, or will I eventually need to restart the service to get the new password?
We were thinking of doing this change in the services option of the windows OS and not in SQL Server configuration manager.
