Hello,
I want to make a package in SSIS for automatic process of my data cube providing some log informations (two INSERT statements to my log table with actual date and result of operation succesful/unsuccesful). I tried to set data source to analysis services, I found my cube but I don't where I can add my cube to project and how can I desingn it. Can anybody tell me how to??? Thanks
Does anyone know an easy way to automatically (ie each morning) refresh a cube without having to log in to the OLAP manager and use the interface? Ideally I want to be able to schedule a job to run each morning so that the Sales & Marketing people arrive to fresh data in their Excel 2000 Pivot tables that are connected to the cube.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Regards,
John Thorpe
I need to automatically generate via SQL, export to Excel and e-mailedto other people montly. what should I setup in the sql server?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are using SQL 2005, Visual Studio 2005, SSIS, and SSAS. We have built our Dimensional model in SQL 2005, we have build our packages to complete full refresh of Dimensional model using SSIS. We have built SSAS cube using VS 2005. We built source, data source, cube and dimensions using auto build. We processed cube in VS 2005 by right clicking on solution and click process. Cube was built in Analysis Services. We made some schema changes to model then data changes in SSIS packages. We then pulled up cube in VS 2005 right click on solution and process. Cube is being re-built. After completion we check cube using Proclarity and Excel 2007 and notice the schema changes and data changes did not take. We dropped cube, then deleted data source, dimensions, and cube then re-created data source view and cube auto build then process and now have new schema changes and data changes.
Why is process not working to re-build schema and data changes when we have process FULL selected, Changes only. We even tried rebuild, deploy, and process. What is it we are missing or not doing correctly?????????

Hi,
I am new to cube process.
I started full process for the partition in the cube which runs for 24 hours.
By then due to some server error I was logged out.
Is there a way to find out which of the partition were processed.
There was no log file for the DTS package earlier.
I just created one now.
thanks for any help
There is a function called "proactive caching" in Analysis services. It can:
----Automatic synchronization with the relational database
----No more explicit "cube processing
But I cannot have the latest data in the cube even I set the proactive mode as "real time"
Do I need SSIS to process cube in this case?
Following is the procedures I have done:
1. test the data
1.1 use the bi dev studio to browser the cube, ensure no new data are there
1.2 process the the cube and browser the data, ensure new data are there
1.3 delete new data from source database and reprocess the cube, ensure no new data are there
1.4 add new data again
2. configure the proactive setting of cube
2.1 use sql server management studio to open the cube and open the properties window
2.2 in the option of "proactive caching" select "low-latency MOLAP" (even real-time ROLAP later), then click ok
3. configure the proactive setting of cube
3.1 open the patitions view properties window
3.2 in the option of "proactive caching" select "low-latency MOLAP" (even real-time ROLAP later), then click ok
3.3 in the notification tab, select "sql server " and specifiy tracking tables to the "fact table", which is a view to get data from real fact table.
4. wait a period of time...
5. test the data again
5.1 use the bi dev studio to browser the cube, but no new data are there (even I selected real-time ROLAP later). I even tried the reconnect and refresh options in the tool bar
So my questions are :
1. Did I do the right thing to achieve the target "Automatic synchronization with the relational database "
2. Can I monitor the procedure of synchronization, such as monitoring the log of processing, viewing the schedule setting and status of the process?
Thanks a lot!
I am unable to call a package with a cube processing task... it will not execute. I have even tried to simply call a package to process foodmart on my own machine and it will not run. The package when run manually executes fine.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
Dear all,
I'd like to get simple and clear explanation of the cube in data mining, and 3 notions we encounter a lot : Build, Deploy, and Process.
(1) What is the cube that is created when we deploy a mining solution/project?
I wonder what type of cubes they are because although the dialog on deploy/process
show that cube, after successful deployment we still don't see the cube in Cubes folder
of the project.
(2) Why the SQL Server created that cube? Even though we process only one table
and only use case-table (without nested table)
(3) Can someone explain these 3 concepts with CLEAR differences between them?
(A) Build
(B) Deploy
(C) Process
As far as I know, the stages are like that : build, then deploy, then process. Also, it seems
to me that those operations do not create objects inside 'Relational' database, but create
objects (binary and text, with text files usually in XMLA programming language) in the
related project's folders and subfolders. Any good explanation is appreciated.

Hi,
I want to process my cube using Process Data and Process Index instead of the Process Full. However, after configuring the 2 Analysis Services Processing Tasks (one for process data and the other for process index) and were executed sequentially (process data first then process index), I got this error:
Errors in the metadata manager. The process type specified for the CASES cube is not valid since it is not processed
Have I done the right thing?
The reason why I prefer using the Process Data and then Process Index, it's because it is much faster than the latter.

Our company is in the retail business, thus, the window for processing cubes is very small during Christmas season (only 4 hours each day).
To speed things up, we have partitioned our cube at monthly level so, potentially, 12 threads can be run simultantsly. However, when I looked at DTS, I am not so sure whether or how it can accomplish that task. Has anyone tried this before or is aware of another third party tool can do the trick?
thx in adcance,

Hi guys,
I made a cube with time dimension with hieracly year/month/date/hour
the problem is that dimension is growin to fast. In older version of MSSQL (2000) the same dimension doesn't grew so much.
Any ideas? The table is big (may be around 1 500 000 rows per month) now it contains around 4 500 000 rows.
I have a requirement.
I have a CUBE in SQL 2000. I need to change the structure of Fact Table and i need to add one more dimension to my CUBE.
What are the problems will arise if i do this. i need to Fully process the CUBE?
PLS help me
Now I have a different constellation: Integration Services run on one server, in version 2014, the Analysis Services instance to process the cube database on runs on another server, version 2012.I tried several different combinations of SSIS version and Analysis Management Objects version, and got several errors while running the process package (e.g. object reference not set to an instance of an object, cannot find AnalyisServices.dll..)
Is this combination 2014/2012 possible at all?I assume the BIDS version has to be for SQL Server 2014, as I want to run SSIS packages on a 2014 server, is that correct? Does it matter at all, can I also deploy 2012 packages?Which version of Analysis Management Objects do I have to use? I assumed I have to use version 11.0 here, because I want to process a 2012 cube?If it is possible to use the "old" 11.0 version of AMO, do I have to do anything so that it can be found by the SSIS package running on the server (it was built on my local computer, there I have all SQL Server versions from 2005 to 2014 installed in parallel), or do I just have to copy it to the appropriate SQL Server folder?
Hello guys! I am relavtively new to ASP.NET programming ang was just starting out on my first project. I am using ASP.NET2.0 technology by using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and of course with SQL 2005 Express Edition.

I have heard to do this automatically (basically with a click of a button) you should use a DTS package. I also see this SSIS. I am trying to understand what to use for this import process. I would really appreciate any help on this. Thanks.
Hello,
I have a database that I am setting up in SQL Server 2005. Initially, I am doing very large imports of data. Every time I run an import, I am having the increase the size of my transaction logs, and now they are approaching 2 GB. Should these be purging themselves? I have to keep increasing the max size of the log so that I can get my data in. While this will work for now, it is not a long term solution, because I can see the log size growing quite large and the amount of space on the server obviously isn't infinite. Is there a setting that I can change so they will automatically purge? If not, how do I purge this information myself?
Thanks so much!

I've got a report that is using a cube as a data source and I can't get the report to show all the data. Only data at the lowest level of the cube is displayed. The problem is that most of the data I'm concerned with is at higher levels. There's no problem with the MDX. I get the correct results when I run the query.
I'm using a table to show the results. I've also tried a matrix, but I get the same results. I'm using SSRS 2005 and SSAS 2000.
Anyone have experience with this? Am I missing something simple?
I have two tables. When my user completes an insert of data in table (1), I would like the second "related" table (2) to be automatically populated with defaults. Is this possible?
My logical approach to this is:
1. Build a handler for the OnInsert event of the first table
2. In the handler, call the Insert Command on the SQLDataSource for the second table with the defaults specified in the DataSource.
What I'm not sure how to do is Step 2 or whats the best way. How do I call the Insertcommand programmatically for a DataSource? Or, is there a better way such as some kind of traditional hardwired SQL insert statement like in classical ASP? Or is there a way to programmatically call a stored procedure and if so is the 3rd approach the best way?
How exactly would someone do this best? It seems this would be a rather common thing someone might need to do.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I've got a question about failover with the database mirroring.
I have 3 servers, 2 with SQL 2005 and 1 with SQL Express as witness.
After getting some problems to install database mirroring with Windows authentification, i had to create an authentification by certificate.
All goes well but my problem is about my primary instance SQL alias.
The alias on the primary doesn't follow on the secondary when the primary is down.
I've searched on forums and in the internet SQL web sites, but i didn't find anything.
I create another alias on the secondary but i don't know how to modify it in T-SQL...
I would like to know if there's any solution to modify an SQL instance alias by transact-SQL? or if anyone has already install on its servers, a fail over automatic with one instance alias with data mirroring in T-SQL?
Thank you all for your help...
I am just starting out using CUBEMEMBER/CUBEVALUE formulas in excel linked into a sql olap db - using this method for some custom reports where pivot tables are not suitable.
The time dimension values include Months, Quarters and Years and the CUBEMEMBER formulas like
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1].&[1]") work fine - 1st quarter 1st month etc.
Is there a straightforward notation to aggregate months or do I need to use a plus sign to add a number of CUBEMEMBER formulas together.In other words - Is there an easier way of for say jan to july 2015 totals than
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1]") + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[2]")) + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[3].&[7]"))
I haven't tested this but have assumed it works but a bit long and clumsy.
hi lads,
what i need to do for my project are as following:
a mobile user send data via GPRS to SQL server Database. then i need to have a method to detect while a particular table is being inserted. and then extract data from table construct a report dynamiclly. what should i do to achieve this goal? e.g. window application, store procedure or trigger ?
PS : client side is a mobile application developed using MCL. i don't in which way he will send all data to SQL server Database, so what i need to do is to monitor new data inserting.
2) how to auto generate and print report directly after record been inserted into the table ? Do i need to import report web service API ? if yes, which one? or i can use other methods e.g. predefine report control view in my window application, turn off pop-up menu while printing a report(I guess)
thanks
Hello,
I have a problem with the round of SQL Server 2K on the float data type.
In my application I do a SQL request for find a row in a table of SQL Server 2K.
This is the request :
SELECT DISTINCT N_ROW_ID FROM COMM WHERE N_ARTICLE_ID=79510 AND N_DATASOURCE_ID=1 AND N_SOURCE_ID=-102 AND N_PROVIDER_ID=-100
AND N_LEAD_TIME IS NULL AND N_UNIT_PRICE = 329.78 AND N_UNIT_PRICE_CURRENCY_ID=1
N_UNIT_PRICE is a float data type.
In the line need, the field N_UNIT_PRICE has 329.78 but with the round of SQL Server 2K I have 329.779999999999997.
So I never find the row
Do you have a solution for comparate a float flied with SQL Server round and a float send in a request as my 329.78?
I can't transform the column in decimal or numeric data type.
Is it possible to Disable the function?

I 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");

Hi,
I have made sure that I am a member of OLSP Adminstrator group on the server and everything seems to work al the way till design storgae and cube processing but then when I browse the cube, I do not get any data :confused:
Can someone kindly help and guide please.
Many thanks.
Can someone help me out in telling me what a data cube is and if you have any examples I can look at?
We are in the process of using data cubes through SQL. What we are looking for is to be able to have summary of data, but if we wanted to click on a grouping we can go to the details of the data.
I just wanted to know if there was any infomation/websites I can go and look at.
Thanks,

Hi friends,
I am new to MSAS world. I need help related to this. I want to pull data from MSAS cube programmatically. Only way I know is thru ODBO, but that won't help me in this case, cause I might have to drill down upto all possible intersections stored in MSAS (at least all of the stored members). Doing this thru MDX could be humongous thing, at least manipulating data taken out using ODBO.
I might be missing something out here. Can anybody help. It would also help if somebody can tell me if any other approach is poosible.
Thank you.

I've seen posts about merging 2 databases but everyone is talking about 2 SQL based databases. I have a data cube based on MDX query giving me all the Sales data. I have a Excel sheet with the Budgets in it, thanks to the connector i can browse through my Excel file using SQL statements.
Now the problem that i have is i want to merge these 2 data's into one report i want to provide Sales figures from the cube with the budgets next to them which are stored in the Excel file.
So basicly is it possible to merge an MDX based database with an SQL database ? Cuz all the solutions i have found to far is by joining databases which is always done on SQL level.
Is this possible or just impossible ?
Thanks in advance
