Note** My installation was the BI edition of SQL 2012, as we had no need for (let alone license to) the enterprise edition.\u00a0 As such, we had no particular need for SSAS or SSRS or High Availability (yes, all the BI tools you need for SharePoint 2010, when using SQL 2012, are included in the BI edition without having SSAS or SSRS installed on your SQL box).\u00a0 We followed this up with an install of PowerPivot on the SharePoint 2010 server, which installed many of the SSAS components on that machine, so I am using the paths found on the SharePoint box in my assumptions below.\u00a0 Be sure to set the exclusions on the correct machine (if you have SSAS \/ SSRS installed on your SQL box for some reason, turn the exclusions on there too).<\/p>\n<table width=\"666\"
