This section describes the steps to install Analysis Center.
To install Analysis Center:
Log on with an administrator account to the computer where you want to install an Analysis Center component.
Run Setup.exe in the root folder of the installation kit.
On the Setup tab, click the appropriate option as follows:
To install Analysis Center on an x86 computer, click Begin x86 Setup.
To install Analysis Center on an x64 computer, click Begin x64 Setup.
In the License Agreement window, click Yes to accept the terms of the license agreement and proceed with the installation, or click No to exit the setup program.
In the Feature Selection window, select the Analysis Center component that you want to install on this computer.
Complete the setup program by following the instructions. For more information about fields on a window, see the Help.
The following sections describe how to install each separate component:
Before starting the setup program, you can configure the setup program to record the installation settings that you specify on the installation dialogs. You can then reinstall Analysis Center in batch mode by issuing a single command.
To turn on recording and create a recording file windows\setup.iss:, start the Analysis Center (x86) or Analysis Center (x64) setup program with the -r switch:
For example, NetIQAnalysisCenterSetup_x86 -r
In the future, you can reinstall Analysis Center components on this computer, bypassing the installation dialog boxes, by issuing this command:
NetIQAnalysisCenterSetup_x86 -s -f1"c:\Windows\setup.iss" -
f2"c:\Windows\logfile.log”
NetIQAnalysisCenterSetup_x86 is located in the analysis_center\setup folder of the installation kit.
If the installation kit is stored on a remote server, issue these commands from Start > Run. If the installation kit is stored locally on the Analysis Center computer, you can open a command prompt.
You can install the Data Warehouse on a local computer or on a remote computer. If you install Analysis Center on a SQL Server failover cluster, run the Analysis Center Data Warehouse setup on each node of the cluster, beginning with the node where SQL Server is in the Active mode. If you install the Data Warehouse on an Analysis Services failover cluster, you must use the Remote Analysis Server option.
SQL Server System Administrator permissions are required for installation of the Data Warehouse relational database.
If you are going to connect to the SQL Server instance where you are making the installation using the Windows account under which you are running the installation, that account must have System Administrator permissions for that SQL Server. For more information about Data Warehouse, see Section 1.2.2, Data Warehouse.
NOTE:Do not install more than one Data Warehouse on a single Analysis Server. Otherwise, the cube processing job will fail.
To install the Data Warehouse:
Log on to the computer where you want to install the Data Warehouse with an account that has SQL system administrator privileges. For more information, see Section 3.3, Running the Setup Program.
In the Feature Selection dialog box, select Data Warehouse.
Click Next.
Complete the setup program by following the instructions on the pages. For more information about fields, see the Help.
If you install the Data Warehouse and Web Service on computers that are in different domains, and if you chose SQL authentication when installing the Web Service, the account under which you run the setup program must have Administrator permissions on the Data Warehouse computer.
Do not install the Web Service on the following:
Domain Controller. If you do, you will not be able to log in to Analysis Center.
Computers where IIS 6.0 has IIS 5.0 isolation mode enabled. If you do, Web Service installation will disable that setting and possibly cause some currently installed Web applications to malfunction.
For more information about Web Service, see Section 1.2.3, Web Service.
To install the Analysis Center Web Service:
Log on to the computer where you want to install the Web Service with an account that has SQL system administrator privileges. For more information, see Section 3.3, Running the Setup Program.
In the Feature Selection dialog box, select Analysis Center Web Service.
Click Next.
Complete the setup program by following the instructions on the pages. For more information about fields, see the Help.
If you are going to use Report Designer to customize reports, install the Data Extension on the computer where SQL Server Reporting Services is installed. For more information about SQL Reporting Services and Data Extension, see Section 1.2.4, SQL Reporting Services and Data Extension.
To install the Data Extension:
Log on to the computer where you want to install the Data Extension with an account that has SQL system administrator privileges. For more information, see Section 3.3, Running the Setup Program.
In the Feature Selection dialog box, select SQL Reporting Services Data Extension.
Click Next.
Complete the setup program by following the instructions on the pages. For more information about fields, see the Help.
