I havnt worked so much on Analysis services, so need your help for the below activity I need to perform. It is to create a Linked Server named TEST_BKUP_OLAP between the SQL database TEST38 (ABC database) and the analysis services database TEST_OLAP_260 (ABC database). Here I am not sure what I need do for this request. First I tried to create a linked server on the SQL Instance TEST38 for TEST_OLAP_260, and I was able to successfully register the OLAP instance on SQL instance. But when I am trying to explore the tables on linked server it is showing me access denied. Can somebody help me on this, as I am confused weather we can register a SQL server on OLAP instance, or do we need to register the OLAP instance on SQL instance. Thanks, Rahul
How did you create Linked Server? Did you mapped user logins too? Read about sp_addlinkedsrvlogin in SQL Server help file
