(3) To install PowerPivot on a new single server with a dedicated DB server, click here. Use this document to install and configure PowerPivot for SharePoint on a single server SharePoint 2010 farm with a dedicated SQL Server. It is a modified version of #2, except that it has been specialized for the 2-server environment.

(4) To set up Reporting Services integrated with SharePoint, click here. Use this document to install and configure Reporting Services in SharePoint Integrated mode. You can then use Report Builder to create reports using PowerPivot workbooks that you have been published to a PowerPivot Gallery as data sources. After installation, you can design reports by entering the URL of the PowerPivot workbook as the “Server:” in your Report Builder or Report Designer data source. The underlying PowerPivot infrastructure will make the appropriate connection to the embedded PowerPivot database residing within the workbook.

As always, if you use them and have corrections or changes, please post feedback in the Comments section of the page.

Enjoy.
