Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services fixes as one file that you can download. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services fix release.
SYMPTOMS
The original released version of SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services does not include a way to include or exclude members of the computer Administrators group from the OLAP Administrators group. By default, the OLAP Administrators local Microsoft Windows security group controls Analysis Services administrative rights, and the OLAP Administrators group also includes the members of the Administrators group for the computer where Analysis Services is installed. However, starting with SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services build 8.00.909, you can use a new registry entry that is named ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin to change this behavior.

STATUS

MORE INFORMATION
You can add this new registry entry under the following registry path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\OLAP Server\Current Version
The data type for this new registry entry is DWORD. The value that is assigned to the ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin registry entry controls inclusion or exclusion of the members of the local computer Administrators group in the OLAP Administrators group.
The following table describes the effect of the ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin registry entry:
| ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin = 1 | Users who are part of the Administrators group, but who are not part of the OLAP Administrators group, cannot connect to the Analysis Services computer by using Analysis Manager or by using any other Microsoft Decision Support Objects (DSO) application. |
| ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin = 0 | Users who are part of the local computer Administrators group, but who are not part of the OLAP Administrators group, can connect to the Analysis Services computer by using Analysis Manager or by using any other DSO application. |
| ExcludeMachineAdminFromOLAPAdmin is not present in the registry | Users who are part of the local computer Administrators group, but who are not part of the OLAP Administrators group, can connect to the Analysis Services computer by using Analysis Manager or by using any other DSO application. |
