Answer 1

With Administrator role, you can "Provision" a project.

1. Log in as administrator
2. Select Settings from the menu
3. Select System -> Provisioning from the sub-menu
4. Click Create (at the very far right of the frame)

Answer 2

It's pretty straight forward with the newest version. All you have to do is installing as the guide. And it will prompt a command which you need to execute with your build tool at the project folder.

For an example for maven it would be like

mvn sonar:sonar -Dsonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000 -Dsonar.login=4aa32e977ab1513e3fe5c3ac0c7883528d01a5e8. 

With a command similar to this reports will be sent to the Sonarqube. And code analysis will be done
