Does Analysis Services have it's own service packs or is it included within
SQL Server service packs?

If Analysis Services is installed on a node with SQL Server2000 sp3 does sp3
need to be installed again?

Thanks.

Ron

Pl. refer to the SQL Server 2000 SP3 download page below - Analysis
Services has a separate download file for SP3. If you install Analysis
Services separately, pl. ensure that it is the SP3 version (8.00.0760)
as well:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...0DCD52C-0488-4

Download SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3a (SP3a), the latest and most
comprehensive update to SQL Server 2000 that corrects vulnerabilities
including the Slammer (W32.slammer) virus.
