When configuring an analysis services task node in BIDS, if the processing order is specified as parallel processing, there will be a yellow warning,saying Analysis services standard edition does not support parallel processing. this confuses me, as every thing is well if i use SSMS2008 to process. thanks in advance.

Hi Kalman i think I have the enterprise edition installed. if not, there should be a warning when i specified the parallel processing option in SSMS2008. Thanks.

Hi Andrew, Have you installed the latest service pack? SP1? Do you have other instances/versions/editions running on the same computer? SP1 installed and NO other instances/version/editions running. Warning still there.Interested in BI related technologies

Hi, I am seeing the same issue - was there any resolution to this one? I checked my registry settings, under Microsoft SQL Server .. Setup etc Edition: Enterprise Edition PatchLevel: 10.0.1600.22 SP: 0 Version: 10.0.1600.22

I've upgraded now using SP2 - still got same issues. Edition: Enterprise Edition PatchLevel: 10.2.4000.0 SP: 2 Version: 10.2.4000.0 In SSIS, my Analysis Services Processing Task has a version of: 10.0.1600.22. Could this be the issue?

I've run this through Profiler and can see it running in Parallel. It must just be a warning / notification.
