Which three actions should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SAS) multidimensional project that is
configured to source data from a SQL Azure database.
You plan to use multiple servers to process different partitions simultaneously. You create
and configure a new data source.
You need to create a new partition and configure SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) to
use a remote server to process data contained within the partition.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate
actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

Answer: See the explanation.

Explanation:

Box 1:

Box 2:

Box 3:

Note:
* You create a remote partition using the Partition Wizard. On the Specify Processing and
Storage Options page, for the Remote Analysis Services data source, specify the dedicated
database on the remote instance of Analysis Services. This instance of Analysis Services is
called the remote server of the remote partition. For Storage location, you can specify the
default data location for the remote server or a specified folder on the server.
You must create an Analysis Services database on the remote server and provide
appropriate security settings. An additional OLAP data source is created on the remote

database pointing to the server on which the partition is defined. The MasterDatasourceID
property setting on the remote database points to the data source which, in turn, points to
the master server. This property is only set on a database that contains remote partitions.
The RemoteDatasourceID property setting on the remote partition specifies the ID of the
OLAP data source on the master server that points to the remote server. A remote database
can only host remote partitions for a single server.
* Before you create a remote partition, the following conditions must be met:
A database dedicated to serving remote partitions for the local database must be created on
the remote server.
The domain user account for the local instance of SQL Server Analysis Services must have
administrative access to the remote instance of Analysis Services.
In order to create or maintain a remote partition, your user name must also be included in
the OLAP Administrators group for both the remote and the local instances of Analysis
Services.
The domain user account for the local instance of Analysis Services must have
administrative access to the remote database.
