administrator permissions on a SSAS database
The SSAS permissions are completely independent from SQL Server permissions.
If you don't have permissions, there is one hope:
By default, members of the local Administrators group are also granted administrative rights in Analysis Server. Although the local group is not explicitly granted membership in the Analysis Services server administrator role, local administrators can create databases, add users and permissions, and perform any other task allowed to system administrators. The implicit granting of administrator permissions is configurable. It is determined by the BuiltinAdminsAreServerAdmins server property, which is set to true by default.
