    Important

    The Hotfix Request page auto-detects the architecture of the computer from which you are connecting. If you want the 64-bit hotfix, you must connect to the page from a 64-bit operating system.

  10. In the body of the hotfix e-mail message, click the location link as described above. This will open a file-download dialog box that lists the name of the self-extracting zip file.

  11. In the File Download dialog box, select Save, and then save the .exe file to your desktop.

  12. Navigate to your desktop and run the .exe file that you just saved. You will need the password provided in the hotfix e-mail message.

  2. Proceed through the installation wizard, accepting all default options.

  3. When the installation wizard finishes, click Finish to exit.

  4. After the CU9 update has been applied, proceed to the PerformancePoint Server SP2 installation.

Download SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3

SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 is available on Microsoft TechNet at Feature Pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - December 2008. If you already have SQL Server 2005 CU9 installed, you do not need to install SQL Server 2005 SP3.

Installing SQL Server 2008

Use the following procedure to install SQL Server 2008 for use with PerformancePoint Server 2007 SP2.

Install SQL Server 2008

  1. Install SQL Server 2008 as described in detail in How to: Install SQL Server 2008 (Setup) (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143219.aspx).

  2. When selecting database collation, choose Latin1_General Case-Insensitive Accent-Sensitive.

  3. Complete all SQL Server 2008 installation steps, including all updates and reboots before beginning the PerformancePoint Monitoring Server installation.

Install PerformancePoint Server 2007 RTM

PerformancePoint Monitoring Server 2007 RTM can now be installed and connected to SQL Server 2008. Detailed information for installing PerformancePoint Monitoring Server can be found in the Deployment Guide for Monitoring Server.

Important

If you are currently running PerformancePoint Server version 3.0.4102.00 or a later version, you will receive an error when you try to upgrade to Service Pack 3 (SP3). In order to successfully install SP3, you will have to run the following database update command script: AppDBpreSP2Update. This script can be found here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=136749. After running the script, you will be able to upgrade to SP3. A future cumulative update will remove the need for this script.

Warning

Do not run the PerformancePoint Monitoring Server Configuration Manager; this will be done after SP3 is installed. You will be unable to specify a SQL 2008 database server until after SP3 has been installed.

Install PerformancePoint Server 2007 SP3

PerformancePoint Monitoring Server SP3 updates the PerformancePoint Monitoring Server Configuration Manager. Run the Monitoring Server Configuration Manager after SP3 has been installed. To install PerformancePoint Monitoring Server SP3, see Service Pack 3 for Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007.
