- BInstall analysis management objects (AMOs) on: Server1 OR Server2
- CInstall SQL server analysis services (SSAS) on: Server1 OR Server2
Explanation
Forecasting analysis in System Center Operations Manager 2012 R2 requires SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS). SSAS provides the OLAP data processing engine that Operations Manager uses to run predictive and trend-based forecasting reports. SSAS must be installed on the SQL Server instance that supports Operations Manager (on Server2, since it hosts Operations Manager and SSRS). Simply connecting to an existing SSAS instance (option A) is not sufficient if SSAS is not yet installed; installing Analysis Management Objects (AMO) alone (option B) does not provide the analysis engine. SSAS installation is the prerequisite action.
