    Installation of SSAS for powerpivot for Sharepoint

    In one of my earlier blogposts (part V) I've already described the installation of the Tabular mode and  these steps taken are almost equal to the installationsteps of the SQL Server Powerpivot for Sharepoint. Therefore I'll not show all the windows but only a selection of the most important windows.

    So startup the setup of the SQL Server 2012 installation and choose for a new installation, run the setup support rules and press a couple of times on Next and you'll see the following window. There is an option on the Setup Role screen to add a SQL Server database engine to the installation. Since we already have a brand new instance of SQL Server Relational Engine installed earlier, I unselect this option. Press Next...


    The following window appear


    If you don't have Sharepoint Enterprise installed you'll get an error.


    A more detailed message


    When you have installed the Sharepoint Enterprise version you're allowed to pass and install the Powerpivot instance. Successful!


    Conclusion

    Important to notice is the inevitable Enterprise edition of Sharepoint 2010 (and not standard).  Generally speaken, the installation is smooth and easy.
