Hi Rajesh,

What version of SQL server ISO did you use, I do not find the Tabular and PoverPivot feature when installing.

I am using SQL SP1

Thanks

Hi Ravi,

This was RTM I believe, SP1 was not yet out at the time of this blog.

But carefully follow the installation steps order in the blog. In order to get to the Tabular option, you start from the beginning. New Install>Feature Install>Analysis Services>Then you get to choose the Tabular. The Tabular instance will always be TABULAR.

Like wise in order to choose Power Pivot instance type, once again you start from the beginning of the install>then you get to choose the Power Pivot install.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Rajesh,
Is this an enterprise or Satndard SQL?
Currently we have Standard installed.

Can we install this "Tabular & PowerPivot" feature later on, once its required.

Thanks you again

Ravi, Of course you will need enterprise to get these features.

I would think that on top of Stadnard DB instance, you might be able to install the BI features from a Enterprise SQL Media.
