upgrading from 2000 to 2005

  • I am trying to upgrade from analysis serivces 2000 to analysis services 2005. When i try to select the instance name, which is "Analysis Services" , i am told i cannot use this name. I have looked this up on the web and found that indeed the name cannot be "Analysis Services" or any keyword. how do i find out the instance id/name of my current installation? I only had the default installation of analysis services on the server, and i installed sql server 2005, but my cubes are no longer accessable. all that is in the analysis serivces menu on the start menu is "deployment wizard", and i cant find any cube files to deploy

  • Go: Start >> Run >> Services.msc

    Then look for a service that starts with SQL Server Analysis Services, behind it it will say the name of the instance in brackets, on my machine it says "SQL Server Analysis Services (SQL2005)"

    I suspect that if you installed the default instance it will just say "SQL Server Analysis Services", but I'm not sure as I do not have a default instance installed.
