Microsoft Azure backup installation fails on a DC

Hi everyone,

I've tried installing the Azure backup client on a Windows 2012 R2 DC, and found that it was failing when attempting to install SQL server, the error was:

"The SQL Server installation failed. Review the SQL Server installation log file for failures, and then take the appropriate action.
ID: 4310. Details: Unknown error (0x84b40000)"

Looking in the logs, I saw this:

"On a domain controller, you cannot use the built-in Windows service accounts (Local Service or Network Service) as service accounts for Reporting Services."

Not seeing a way around this, I did the installation manually, and then when trying again it had the SQL server installed, but it looks like it was trying to change around the account who the service runs as.

I went through the procedure here:

But that really hasn't helped. Any suggestions on how to make this work?
