4.0.0 HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server Administration Guide (T5392-96056, March 2010)

Probe Configuration: The frequency is the interval of time, in seconds, at which the monitor runs its
probe. The default setting is 20 seconds. The timeout is the maximum amount of time that will be
waited for the probe to complete. The default timeout interval is 15 seconds.
NOTE:
The probe behavior of the Virtual SSAS instance monitor differs from the default behavior of the
service monitors provided with Matrix Server. In Matrix Server, the monitor probes the associated
service on all nodes on which it is configured. The Analysis Services Service monitor probes the
Analysis Services service only on the node where the Virtual SSAS is active.
The Advanced button on the Add Analysis Services Service window displays options that can be used
to tailor the monitor for your environment. These options are the same as the advanced options for
SQL monitors. See “Advanced options for monitors” on page 63, for more information.
To add a SSAS instance from the Command Prompt:
mx vssasinstance add --vpath <path> [arguments] <vssas\SSAS_instance>
See the HP PolyServe Matrix Server command reference guide for information about the arguments.
The following screen shows a Virtual SSAS instance configured on a Virtual SSAS.
