OLAP SSAS

  • Hello,

    I am new with OLAP

    I have almost followed all steps to create cube in BI.

    But when i click on process button i got the following error.

    The project could not be deployed to the 'localhost' server because of the following connectivity problems : A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running. To verify or update the name of the target server, right-click on the project in Solution Explorer, select Project Properties, click on the Deployment tab, and then enter the name of the server.

    I think this error occurs because ssas is not configured in my system. (i have checked it under configuration tab in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2).

    Can anyone guide me i am correct with this or not and also please do let me know how can i upgrade my sql server 2008 r2 for ssas?

    Thanks.

  • Sounds like you need to install Analysis Server.

    I would verify which version - 2008 R2 or 2014, they are different.

    And I would also do this in a test environment, not production.

    If running SSAS and SQL on the same machine, you will have some additional configuration considerations.

    You need to install Analysis Services, that's for sure.

    If you have SQL Server 2008R2, you can use that set-up to install SSAS.

    I'm not sure what you mean with upgrading?

  • Hello,

    You need to check two things:

    1. Wheter SSAS server is installed or not. for this please open SSMS --> Click on Conect in top left of Object explorer and select "Analysis Service"

    If " Analysis Service" option is enabled then it is installed.

    2. Check whether Services required for run Analysis services is running or not.

    Option 1 does not tell you if Analysis Services is installed or not.

    You can perfectly connect with SSMS on a development machine (where SSAS is not installed) to SSAS on another server.
