If similar login credentials will be used to log in to all SQL Server and Analysis Services instances,
you can have the same login credentials applied to all the instances. Simply fill in the Authentication
Type, Username, and Password boxes in the top All Instances row.

Finally, click Connect to log in to the SQL instances using the provided login credentials. As shown
in

Figure 24 (page 31)

, the Login Status and Login Type : Login Name columns indicate the validity

of the supplied login credentials and the type of authentication (Windows or SQL Authentication),
respectively.

If a login fails, the Latest Login Log section shows the reason for the failure, as shown in

Figure 24

(page 31)

. If the reason for failure is that a specified account is not assigned sufficient server roles

in SQL Server or is not a member of the Analysis Services Server Administrators group, the user
account was not configured to ensure access to SQL Server or Analysis Services instances. To
configure the user accounts correctly, see

“Configuring user accounts to enable access to SQL

Server and Analysis Services instances” (page 15)

.

NOTE:

For security purposes, when an ESO Admin Session ends or expires, all SQL credentials

are cleared. You must re-enter SQL credentials with each new session.

Modifying the Admin Session timeout value

The default session timeout of 30 minutes may be changed by entering the new timeout value in
the New Value field under the ESO Session Configuration section of the SQL Login page. The
maximum timeout value is approximately 1,000,000 minutes. The ESO Session Configuration
section is near the bottom of the page; you might have to scroll down to that section.

Figure 25

(page 31)

shows the ESO Session Configuration section where the session timeout can be modified.

NOTE:

When there is less than one minute remaining in the current Admin Session, some pages

might be inaccessible. To resolve the issue, click Extend Session (located at the top of the left pane
of the page).
