Repair SQL installation question

Hi,
I'm trying to find out if repairing a sql installation or reinstalling sql server will have an affect on my analysis services?

Can you detach a cube like you can detach a database?

We just have a problem that might need a repair/reinstall and i don't want to affect our reporting cube.

Thanks,
Alan.

Can you tell me how to back up an OLAP database?

Thanks.
Connect to your Analysis Services server via Object Explorer, go to Databases folder, right-click on your database and choose "Back Up...".
