Installing This Hotfix
 
Before you install this hotfix, ensure that there are no administrative tasks in process, such as adding or removing data sources.

When you install this hotfix, Analysis Center re-creates and runs the ETL processing job on each Analysis Center data source. If you previously applied Hotfix 72687, the AC_OLAP database is not created again after applying this hotfix. If you did not, Analysis Center re-creates the database and runs the OLAP processing job. You will be able to view your reports when the OLAP processing job has run successfully the first time after applying this hotfix. This will take some time, depending on the amount of data to process.

Install this hotfix on all computers with the following components:
