Analysis Server Properties (Service tab)

Applies to: SQL Server on Windows

This service is the SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) service. This service must be running for SSAS to work properly. The property values in light gray can't be changed by using this application.

Use the Service tab on the Properties dialog box to view or specify the following options.

Options

Binary Path

Displays the location of the program files used by this service.

Error Control

1 indicates SERVICE_ERROR_NORMAL. If the service fails to start during computer startup, the startup program logs the error and displays a pop-up message box but continues the startup operation. This value can't be changed.

Exit Code

When an error occurs, the error number appears in this box.

The Windows error code defines any problems encountered in starting or stopping the service. This property is set to ERROR_SERVICE_SPECIFIC_ERROR (1066) when the error is unique to the service represented by this class, and information about the error is available in the ServiceSpecificExitCode property. The service sets this value to NO_ERROR (0) when running, and again upon normal termination.

Use this number to troubleshoot failures by searching on Microsoft Learn, or provide the number to your technical support staff.

Host Name

Displays the name of the computer or cluster running the SSAS service.

Name

Indicates the display name of the service.

Displays the number used by Windows to keep track of this program's processes.

  • Manual: This service doesn't automatically start when the computer starts. You must start the service using SQL Server Configuration Manager, or some other tool.

  • Automatic: This service attempts to start when this computer starts.

  • Disabled: This service can't be started.
