We are going to be installing a SQL Server 2005 2 node multiple instance cluster (active/active) and I'm a little confused as to how many service accounts will need to be created. I've read that you should create a different domain user account for each service and each instance of SQL Server 2005 but that recommendation appears to be for stand alone installations. In a clustered environment is that the case as well? If we will have a Production instance on one node of the cluster and a Beta instance on the other node of the cluster, do we need to create two separate domain user accounts for each instance or should there only be one?
Thanks!

we run it under the domain admin account. it's not the best for security, but it's been like that for years and unfortunately we will have to change it soon.
