Remarks

For Backup commands, the Location element provides information about creating a remote backup file for a remote instance of Analysis Services.

For Restore commands, the Location element provides information about identifying and connecting to a remote Analysis Services instance, as well as the remote backup file used to restore remote partitions on that remote instance.

For Synchronize commands, the Location element describes either a data source to be used by the target instance or a remote instance defined on the source instance that must be synchronized with the target instance, depending on the value of the DataSourceType element for the parent Synchronize command.
