By default, set to round-robin
health allocation
Testing notes that BP to set to
health-based allocation
Uses more resources than round-robin
BUT, pro-actively evicts
unnecessary VertiPaq dBs when under
memory pressure

• Builds upon V1 release in SQL Server 2008 R2
• New administrative capabilities
– Lots of bug fixes
– Default allocation algorithm changed to health-based rather than round-robin
– Manage the amount of database caching done on the app servers
– Database caching cleanup (based on inactivity)
– Disable data refresh jobs if they are constantly failing, or if they succeed but are not being viewed
SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot
SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot
• A new setup experience – Rather than installing and configuring SharePoint directly, setup now just lays down
the bits and there is a new standalone configuration wizard
• Capabilities:
– Wizard has both a one-click “GO” option as well as a step-by-step experience
– Existing farm steps integrated with the wizard
– Individual steps can be scripted
– History is directly integrated into the tool
– Able to uninstall, upgrade, repair and patch separately
SQL Server Denali PowerPivot
• Important note: SharePoint SP1 is required – SQL Setup will issue a warning if SharePoint SP1 has not been
installed when the PowerPivot bits are laid down. This gives you some time to upgrade to SP SP1.
– However, if you still haven’t upgraded to SP1, by the time you get to
run the PowerPivot configuration wizard, we will throw a fatal error and you will be blocked from configuring your SharePoint farm until you upgrade to SP1.
