How to fix connection to SSAS from SQL Agent?

I have 3 servers: Server1 - Prod DB Server Server2 - Prod ETL Server Server3 - Dev Server

I created SSIS package to process cubes on nightly basis.

So Package is located on Server2 and it uses windows authentication (impersonated user) to access SSAS db. SQL Agent Job is also created on Server2.

When I setup connection in the Job Step to Server3(there is also SSAS db) - everything works well.

But when I setup connection to Server1 - I get an error on job step: "A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running. "

When I run this package manually (from file system or from Visual Studio) - it works well.

My question is: Why connection doesn't work when package is executed using SQL Agent job and works when package is executed manually?

I'll appreciate any help on this.

Thanks

Sounds like Windows permissions - The SQL Server Agent account can't access Server 1.
