How To Create Partitions On Cube Using SSIS?
May 5, 2008
Hi,
I am currently using SSIS ,MS Sql Server 2000 database and 2000 Analysis Services for the cube.
I am creating a new table everyday and giving name like day_20080504, day_20080505 etc...
So then I go to Analysis Services and process dimensions(incremental) AND
Create a new partition using old partition as a template.
My first question is how to create a new partition everday and use old partition as template...(Almost same except database table)
My Second question : Can I do this on 2000 Analysis services or Should I convert my cube into SSAS?
thanks,
J

The environment here is SSIS ETL feeding a Fact Table. The Fact Table is pulled into SSAS as a cube and reporting services are handled there. I am on the ETL side and don't pretend to know all the processing that happens with cubes, etc.
What we are trying to accomplish is to add partitions to a Cube via the ETL processing. The partitions should be incremented by Day, i.e. 20070501, 20070502, etc.
This is currently processed manually by the Reporting developer and we are looking for an automated process to reduce errors and hand work.
I have explored the following objects: Partition Processing DataFlow Destination and did not find much documentation or examples on it's use. If you have any information on this stage, please reply with such.
The other option is the Analysis Services Processing Control Flow. I understand that we can process Analysis Server objects as part of our package. Is there a way to incorporate a Partitioning Script in this object? If so, how. Again, I did not find detailed examples on the use of this object.
If you have experience with either of these, please feel free to reply. I appreciate any and all comments.

HI,
As the source data of the cube is from MySQL, and the source data volume is more than 80M row per month, I have to build multiple partition in the cube, each partition contain only one month data, even though, the time to load data directly from MySQL is still too long, and because the mysql .Net provider and is not mature enough, the connection often break while loading, so I have to try to load from flat file which was exported from MySQL.
The Partition Processing Destination seems support this way, but, even it shows the partition name in component editor, it actually process the partition with partition ID, and there's not any way to change destination partition name for this component.
Unless I have to change the SSIS package every month, looks like it is impossible to make a smart ETL program that can dynamic create new partition with the ID and name as YYYYMM every month and load data directly from the flat csv file exported from big MySQL table.
Does anyone know how to load data from flat text, and also support dynamic destination partition name?
And I also find a bug in Partition Processing Destination, even 2005 SP2, if there's more than one cube in a SSAS database, and if two partition name in different cube is same, in component Editor, you can not set mapping to the second one with the same name, even you point to the second one, and click ok, the next time you open the editor, you will find it high light at the first one. And even it shows name in editor, it actually process with partition ID instead of partition name, this make it is not possible by change the partition name which need to process to a constant name, say currentMonth to force the component process it.
Thanks.

What are the general guildlines for choosing these settings, like paralle vs. sequential, different error configurations? The default selection for processing multiple dimensions is paralle and use default error configuration. But the default for processing multiple partitions is sequential. I cannot find anything helpful other than the definitions from the online help. TIA.

I need to grant create cubes to developers, but if I include them into server administration role, then they could delete or modify all the databases.
Each developer require full administration on their own databases, but not other developer's databases.

I have a big problem to solve:
I use MsSqlServer 2000, Analysis service. I have cubes and virtual cubes. I have a dimension of consult, they have a hierarchy that change every month. for example: In june the consult "John" is in D11, in September he is on D14,...
Hierarchie: D10 -> D11, D12, D13 - > C1, C2..
For this reason when i want analysis The consult John in a year(12 months) my result is wrong. With this changes in the hierarchie my analysis become wrong!
I thought in the end of every month store the cube in a local cube, like a picture of every consult, with his sales e others measures. With this i can analysis the consult in a specific month rightly, but i need the anlysis in a year. And in a year i would have 12 local cubes, then i could acess them and do a right analysis. How could i access 12 local cubes? Can i create a virtual cube with this 12 local cubes? Is there another solution for this problem?
Thanks,

Greetings,
Here's what I need to do. I need to programmatically create offline cubes for multiple customers. Using VS2005 (C#) and SQL Server 2000, I am able to do this using the CREATE GLOBAL CUBE command. However, I need to create cubes from SQL Server 2005 as we have upgraded and the CREATE GLOBAL CUBE command does not work as it did before. I've search and found examples using AMO, but they create a server cube. I already have a server cube.
I need to be able to create filtered offline cubes from the existing server cube. I've also read much on XMLA, but that doesn't do it for me either. The code below creates an empty offline cube. However, is there a way to use this to create a cube with data?
I am creating this in a windows application.
Server server = new Server();
server.Connect(@"Data Source=C:MyLocalCube.cub");
server.Disconnect();
Can anyone help? This is driving me nuts!

Although I can create the local cube, the cube that is created is very large because it brings over all accounts for the employee. In AS2K, it filtered automatically and only returned accounts that had revenue, which is what I'm trying to do using AS2005. I've read some of the responses about using XMLA and AMO, but I am not sure how to use these within the VS2005 windows application that I use to create and distribute the local cubes. Does anyone have a good example of how to use XMLA, AMO or anything else that would allow me to programmatically create and filter offline cubes using C#?
For instance, this code DOES create an empty cube. But how would I go about getting data into this cube?
Server server = new Server();
server.Connect(@"Data Source=c:MyLocalCube.cub");
server.Disconnect();

I'm trying to create report with datasource as a cube. I'm able to connect to datasource to pull data with a single parameter. But, I'm unable to succeed in creating a cascading parameter.
The following scenario:
I have a dimension "Period" as Paremeter.
The Period dimension is cascaded to year- quarter- month.
So, I would like to create a cascading parameter for period as year - quarter - month.
Please let me know, how to acheive this.
thanks,

Mr. Pearson,
I am currently reading your article titled, "MDX in Analysis Services: Create a Cube-Based Hierarchical Picklist". This article is directly applicable to a problem we are currently trying to solve regarding ragged hierarchies as input parameters.
I have not read the entire article through but am in the process of doing so. Also, I will be trying to implement your solution.
I have one question, will SSRS support multi selection when using a hierarchical picklist? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

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 starting to brainstorm about building a package cube. Here are some of the initial ideas I have.
DimPackage
PackageKey
PackageName
SourceFile
ExecutedByMachine
ExecutedByUser
DimFTP
FTPKey
FileArrivalDatetime
PackageExecutionDatetime
FileName
DimTime
TimeKey
Day
Month
Year
Etc.
FactPackage
PackageKey
TimeKey
FTPKey
ArrivalToExecutionLag
#TimesRun
#Succeeded
#Failed
Do you know of some good cube schema's for reporting on SSIS package's? If this has already been done then I would rather not reinvent the wheel.

Hi All,
I have a scenerio where i need to run the scheduled package for every 10 minutes. Let me give some examples. Say once my ETL process is done, my SS_Batch table gets inserted once. Here i have two columns like SS_Batch_cd and SS_Create_TS respectively. Once the ETL process runs successfully this SS_Batch_CD column will have values as 'C' which means 'Completed'. Similarly when ETL process fails this SS_Batch_CD column will have values as 'F' which means 'Failed'. And Similary when ETL process is in progress this SS_Batch_CD column will have values as 'P' which means it is in 'Progress'. In SS_Create_TS column, it will have date like 2008-04-15'.
Note : This SS_Batch table will get inserted only once when ETL job is over (whether the job is runned sucessfully or not or in Progress) along with the date.
Actually i need to run the package for every 10 minutes because i dont know when the last cube was processed. If i get this last processed cube date then i can check this processed cube date with SS_Create_TS column and SS_Batch_cd in SS_Batch table. Say if Last processed cube date is greater than SS_Create_TS then i can refresh or process the cube. This validation i need to do to achieve my goal.
What are all the control flows should we need to have in SSIS to achieve this scenerio? Please give me briefly to solve this problem.
Please advise on this.
Thanks in advance.
Anand Rajagopal.

I am trying to access Cube through SSIS and have been unable to set SSIS package with the work around provided here (https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=219068). On pasting the MDX query using the openrowset command on the OLEDB source editor, I get a pop up window with error 0x08000405 and the message that says 'syntax used for openrowset is incorrect'
I also tried running this on SQL Management studio but, get the following error.
OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)" returned message "An error was encountered in the transport layer.".
OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The peer prematurely closed the connection.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)".
The server where the cube resides is on 64bit machine and I have 32-bit..could this be the reason for the issue?
I found this article on microsoft support website (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947512 ) which describes the possible symptoms and causes for connectivity issues But, couldn't find a work around for it.
Here is the syntax of the query I am using in SSIS and query analyser
SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET('MSOLAP', 'Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=True;Data Source=<SERVERNAME>; Initial Catalog=<Catalog name>;'
,
'MDX Query') AS Rowset_1
Any help with this issue is appreciated!

Hi All,
I have some clarifications on stopping my package once cube is refreshed or processed.
Below i have given steps for the transformation in my package
Let me give you what are all the dataflow transformations that i had given in my package.
1. Data Flow Task
2. Script Task 1- I have written code for getting the last processed cube (global variable has been declared for Last processed cube date - lastProcessedCube)
3. Script Task 2 - I have written code for SS_Batch table where i can get Create_Ts date that is assigned to another global variable - create_ts.
4. Analysis Processing Task.
In between Script Task 2 and Analysis Processing Task i have given @lastProcessedCube > @create_ts for Expression and Constraint under Precedence Constraint Editor
Actually i need to run package for every 10 minutes which i can do it in Job Schedule and need to refresh or process the cube daily. Is there any way to stop the package once when my cube is processed on that day. Again start the package for the next day.... Is it possible to do this? Please let me know.
Thanks in Advance,
Anand Rajagopal

It runs SSIS packages, stored procedures fine. But when it comes to execute a command, reprocessing a Analysis Services cube it fails, saying the cube either not exists or the account has no rights. The cube does exist. If it's the account, how can I choose a different one or permit the one which is being used to execute reprocessing?
Thanks, Andrei.

Hello,
how can I connect to a cube (on a SQL 2005 server) and get (fact) data to process with SSIS? I looked at the toolbox but I see no applicable tool. It would be fine if somebody can provide a link to an article or example.
Thanks in advanced!

Hi,
I've been trying to use Analysis Services 2005 Cube as a data source, query it via MDX and then use the data returned elsewhere in SSIS.
However, I've been unable to get this working and can't find any information regarding how this can be done. Surely it should be possible when I can get this working even in Excel?
I've looked in December edition of BOL and no luck - have also sent a feedback to BOL regarding this and have been told that "it should be possible, since there is a way to send SQL queries to AS." However the person I was speaking with knew of no one who had actually tried this scenario and to try posting here.
Any help as to how to get this done would be greatly appreciated.

All I get back is an error message of "Analysis Services Processing Task Error: A Connection cannot be made. Ensure the Server is running" The server is running, I can process the cube by connecting to the AS instance and right-click processing it.
I can process the cube by running the SSIS task inside of SSDT Just when I deploy the SSIS package (in Project mode) and then execute it do I get the error message.
SQL Server, SSAS, and SSIS processes are all running under the same account. SSAS is on a separate server from SSIS and SQL if that matters.
