Error when I use the PowerPivot Configuration Tool

Question

After installing Pover Pivot for SharePoint I tried to execute the Configuration Tool.

This tool supposed that i am not a SharePoint Farm Admin.

I found that the tool wants the credentials from the installer of the farm.

Can you help out with a work aroud?

Because many of my customers who want to implement SQL 2012 SSRS don't know the installer account from SP2010.

An valid answer will be helpfull...

Answer 1

For running this tool you have to be a farm administrator, a server administrator on the Analysis Services instance, and db_owner on the farm’s configuration database.
