Analysis :: Creating Cube With AMO - Cube Has No Measure Groups?
May 19, 2015I have problems creating a cube with AMO.
I can add the cube to the database object and fill it with dimensions and a measuregroup (see code below).
If I call cube.Update() it says something like "Error in meta data manager. Cube has no measuregroups." (getting the message in german language)
The error in Microsoft.AnalysisServices.OperationException.Results.Messages is -1055653629
I can't find any documentation about this (or any other) error code in Microsoft documentation.
Here's my Code:
Cube newCube = database.Cubes.Add("MyCube","MyCube");
newCube.Language = 1031;
newCube.Collation = "Latin1_General_CI_AS";
CubeDimension dim = newCube.Dimensions.Add("dim1","dim1","dim1");
CubeAttribute attrib = dim.Attributes.Find("dim1Attr1");

Analysis :: Cube Needs To Be Deployed From VS After SSIS Analysis Services Processing Task Completes?
May 13, 2014I have a cube that we are processing nightly via an Analysis Service Processing Task in SSIS. In order to increase the performance of the processing time, we elected to use a lot of rigid dimension attributes, and do a full process of everything in the SSIS task. The issue that I am having is that after that task completes, I need to go into Visual Studio to deploy the cube becuase we are unable to browse or use the cube. This issue seemed to start once we changed the SSIS Analysis Service Processing Task to do a full process on the dimensions, rather than an incremental.
I would expect that once development is done, and it is processed and deployed, that is it. My thinking is that the SSIS task should just update the already deployed cube,
Cube History
Mar 25, 2004I am trying to build a cube to monitor the sales performance. My measure is the sale amount. My dimensions include 1) Time 2) Sale hierarchy (salesman, sales office, region), and 3) Product Line. The problem I have is that when the salesman move from one office to another, the sales occured before this movement should continue to be credited to the old office. Only sales happen after the movement should be credited to the new office.
How should I implement the cube to achieve this effectively? We have more that 40,000 sales, about 500 offices, in the company to monitor. So I don't think keeping a copy of the sales hierarchy whenever there is a change is feasible.
Any inputs will be highly appreciated!
Thanks.

SQL 2012 :: How To Find CPU Usage From History
Jun 15, 2015I am trying to find out CPU utilization from the history using process.%processor time. I am having dual core CPU with 2 numa nodes each having 16 logical cpus bind to it.
how to calculate the CPU utilization using perfmon.I tried to use SQL query which gives CPU history using SQL DMV, but I am unable to get the exact value. Because in between I have used the same querry to capture my CPU usage on the run day, the value on run day and the query which iam tryting to pull out is different. I am using the same query to pull the history data with providing the date.

Opinion On Cube Analysis
Feb 7, 2008Hi,
I was talking to my boss to day and our report request are not very consistant. We always having someone coming back to change something in our report. We were thinking of useing something called the Cube Analysis. Then it give our employees the raw data for them to run any standard query for themself. We have folks that want a report one way, but then they changed their minds and we are creating yet another report 4 or 5 times. what are your thoughts about this type of database?
Analysis Services: Deploy A Cube
Jun 21, 2007I'm making my first attempt at creating a cube using Analysis Services based on my exisiting datamart. Datasource, views, and dimensions have been defined. But comes deploying the cube, it's giving the error saying "A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running." The Deploy Target server and database are the same where my datamart is. Or, maybe I don't know what I'm doing.
Would appreciate any suggestion for my enlightenment. Thanks
Analysis Services Hiearchy Cube
Jun 30, 2007I setup Hiarchy in the dimentions of my cube, however when I go and look at it via proclarity, I can't see the hiearchy there.
I have one table that has:
Category
Subcategory
Partnumber
And I have the hiearchy set from Subcategory to partnumber.
Then I go into proclarity and limit the category by "my catname" and I still see the 8000 partnumbers in the list.
Any ideas?
Q: Analysis Services Cube Design
Jul 20, 2005I have a (hopefully typical) problem when it comes to cube design. Westore millions of product records every year, broken down bymonth/quarter. Each product can be assigned to various heirarchialclassification groups etc. The data in an OLTP DB occupies roughly100G for a typical year.We're looking at breaking this out into OLAP to provide faster accessto the data in various configurations and groupings. This is not aproblem, as this is the intended use for Analysis Services.The problem is that we apply projection factors on the product pricesand quantities. This would be ok if it only happened once, however,this happens every quarter (don't ask why). The projection factorschange 4 times a year, and they affect all historical product records.This presents a challenge because to aggregate the data into a usefulconfiguration in the cubes, you throw out the detail data, but thismeans throwing out the price and quantities which are needed to applythe projection.So if you have Product A at $10 and Product B at $20, and roll both upinto Category X, you'll have $30, but you'll lose the ability to applya projection factor of .5 to Product A and .78 to Product B. They'rerolled up.I don't want to regenerate the cubes every 3 months. That's absurd.But we can't live without the ability of projection theprices/quantities on a product level (detail level). So how can thisbe achieved when the other cubes are created at a higher level withless details and sums of the detail data?My initial guess is that we have to update the product data, and thenreaggregate all the other data that is built upon that product data.Is there any other way to apply math to the data on the way out?Thanks in advance!Regards,Zach

Analysis Services Help - Dim Builds, But Cube Fails.
Dec 8, 2005If there are any AS gurus out there, I could use some help. I've been having some problems with particular AS dimension and cubes and it's driving me crazy! It doesn't matter what I do, nothing seems to work.
Anyway, here's what I'm trying to do. I've got a fairly simple dimension. There is a date stored in the dimension that is formatted as an int. The dimension needs to only display AGE, so I cast the int as a date and do a datediff to get AGE. The dimension builds just fine and I get the results I want. My problem is when I add the dimension to the cube. The cube fails to build and I get an error message - "Data source provider error: The column prefix 'MY TABLE' does not match with a table name or alias used in the query." Basically, AS is telling me that the table that is used for the dimension doesn't exist, even though the fact and the dimension are joined properly and I've validated the structure.
I've run a number of queries in QA on the two tables and everything works fine. No funky data issues. I've run the service packs a few times, but that didn't work either. I've tried making a cube that only has the just fact table and the one dimension table, and it still fails.
Basically, I'm out of ideas. Any help that anyone has is greatly appreciated.
Analysis :: AttributeKey Not Found When Processing The Cube
Apr 21, 2015I have designed a cube. It has two fact tables and some dimensions. Fact table to fact table is many to many relationship.
For example
FactMain
DataKey(PK), StartDateKey, PostCodeKey, TotalCost
FactBridge
DataKey(FK), ProductKey(FK), Position - PrimaryKey on DataKey + ProductKey + Position
DimProduct
ProductKey(PK), ProductCode
Cube is built successfully, processed successfully.When I try to process the cube from agent job, I am getting error "Attribute key not found: tablename, value..." I have added a job step to run AnalysisServices Command. I have taken the command from cube process script(taken from manually process the cube and take script generated). I used ProcessAffectedObjects = "true" in the script. When I checked the tables, the key does exist. Why am I getting this error?

Analysis :: How To Update Cube To Get MDX Working Fine
Oct 5, 2015I have been trying to get the ValueR column of the following query through the MDX but instead getting ValueW as output of the MDX
select
exp(Log(sum(MTMROR)+ 1 ))-1 as ValueW,
exp(sum(Log(MTMROR + 1)))-1 as ValueR
from
Temp_Performance
where Rundate in ('2015-03-01','2015-03-02')
MDX written for the above query is
With
Member [Measures].[LogValuePre]
as ([Measures].[MTMROR] + 1)
Member [Measures].[LogValuePre1]
as VBA
[Code] ...
[MTMROR] measure has the aggregate function Sum. What i can get from this behavior is MDX is first aggregating the result and default aggregation function is Sum. When i try to see the value with more granular data by having the date dimensions on the row (un-commenting the date dimension) i get the correct log and exp log values. Its showing the correct value as date dimension is most granular level in the fact table. While trying to get the data at less granular level(Fund level), getting the sum function applied automatically.
If i set AggregateFunction to none in the cube structure, i get null as the output.
How could i apply the log function before the sum function in the [MTMROR] measure?

Analysis :: Cube Performance Versus Many-to-Many Dimensions
Sep 22, 2015I have a cube with 2 many-to-many dimensions where a special mdx query needs about 5 seconds. When I resolve the many to many relationships by multiplying the data in the fact table the query needs 21 seconds.
In general do many-to-many dimensions slow down query performance of a cube?
Without the many-to-many dimensions of course the fact table has much more rows. Could this be the reason for the performance loss?
