OLAP Server

Apr 15, 1999

Anyone managed to get the OLAP server installed onto SQL7 Desktop?

I'm running it on Win98 and the installation only offers the Client and sample applications.

Obviously the client won't connect as there's no server to connect to.

The documentation on what does/doesn't run in Desktop version doesn't mention OLAP server.

Please email reply to me at RussLewis@msn.com

Thanks

OLAP Server Stability

Mar 19, 1999

Is anyone satisfied with stability of OLAP-services ?

We´ve got a cube with 103 Levels and about 1.100.000 rows in the
fact table.

After processing the cube everything works fine.
After changing the fact-table (new rows) the only option is to
process the cube (no incremental update or refresh offered).
OK.
After processing the cube (which sometimes failes) the cube sometimes
containes wrong data !?
Sometimes during operation with the OLAP-Client(inSight from arcplan)
the data changes.
Sometimes it is not possible to connect to the cube.

Did anyone have same or other or better experience ?
Keen to discuss !

Connecting To OLAP Server

Feb 27, 2001

We are running SQL Server 7.0, Service Pack 3, on a NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5a?)
server. The server is running both SQL Server and OLAP.

When attempting to connect to the OLAP instance on the NT 4.0 server from a local
PC, also running SQL Server 7.0 Service Pack 3, the following error message is
displayed:

"Cannot retrieve the repository information from the server [datamartact]."

Note: 'datamartact' is the name of the NT 4.0 server.

Does anyone encountered this message before? Could this mean that the person
who is trying to connect neads read or read/write permission to the partition
were the repository is kept?

OLAP Server Connections

Sep 21, 2007

Hi all,

Is it true that connections to the OLAP server can only be made using a Windows Account?

Is there a way to setup those connections to the OLAP using a Standard Account?



Thanks in advance

Sizing An OLAP Server

Apr 16, 2008

Hi there,

We are experiencing some contention of resources between our RDBMS and our OLAP environment; both SQL2005; so we are going to put the OLAP side of life onto another seperate box. Therefore I need to work out what sort of requirements we are going to need; and this is where i have no idea.

I have had a look at the HP sizers, however this is looking primarily at normal RDBMS setups rather than specifically for OLAP. Is there any specifics that I need to consider/nail down before working this out?

To give you an idea:
We currently have 210 million rows in our main fact table, and each row is averaging about 330 bytes
The size of our current OLAP database is only 4GB
It appears as though we are currently getting anywhere between 6 and 20-30 concurrent users

Considering the above; I would have thought a dual core cpu setup (maybe x2) with 8-10GB of ram would have been the ticket?
Now I have done a server sizing exercise for a normal SQL2005 installation; considering temp db on seperate spindles to the log and database tables etc; but what sort of considerations do I need to do for a server running SSAS?

Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can offer on this front

Regards
Troy

The error I am getting is the following:
"Error occurred while connecting to machine2
Cannot open the following registry key on the server computer(machine2):

Can anyone give me a clue as to what is going on.
(note: I have tried the 'default' MS troubleshooting method of re-installing - no change)

Registering Server In OLAP Manager

Jan 26, 1999

I'm trying to register a remote OLAP server under OLAP Manager.
After I enter the machine name I get the following:

Errors occurred while connecting to <server>.
Cannot open the following registry key on the server computer (<server>):
SoftwareMicrosoftOLAP ServerServer Connection Info
Do you still want to register this server?

The noticeable thing about this error message is that the registry key is missing the first level (HKEY_....). Has anyone been able to register a remote server? I can run OLAP Manager on the server without a problem. I just uninstalled and reinstalled OLAP services on the server and my desktop.
There is a registry key with this path under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on the server.

OLAP Server Or SQL Analysis Service

Jul 24, 2006

Hi

I am new to SQL Server and not quite understand the difference between OLAP server or SQL Analysis Service. Are they referring to the same thing?? An user asked me to confirm that the OLAP server is active on a server running SQL Server 2005, what do I need to check. The Analysis service is up and running, does it mean it is OK??

Please advise.

Thanks.

OLAP Server Returns Incorrect Data

May 24, 2001

I'm working with PivotTable on Excel 2000 which is connected to an OLAP server (from SQL Server 7 installation). The pivot is intended to analyze Sales during April 2001. Yesterday I found out that OLAP/Excel returned/displayed inconsistent data. The 'April Total' value is NOT equal to the 'Quarter 2 Total' (I already inspected the underlying database and sure that there is absolutely NO data for months after April 2001). The value for 'April Total' is the correct one. I'm not sure whether the problem resides on the OLAP Server or Excel (pivot) itself. For ones who like to help me I would be glad to supply you with the screenshots (just email me).
Please help.

Why Isn&#39;t Microsoft Actively Marketing SQL Server 2000 OLAP?

Apr 9, 2001

I recently wrote a white paper on OLAP and was having a hard time finding any information about what was new in SQL Server 2000 OLAP on the web. I didn't really find much until I downloaded a trial copy of SQL Server 2000 (which didn't have OLAP, but had links to information on it). We use Hyperion Essbase, and I was wondering if Microsoft OLAP 2000 would be a viable competitor.

Copy An Olap Database To A Remote Server Using SSIS

May 2, 2008

How to add a task to copy an OLAP database to a remote Sql server in control flow using SSIS 2005? This OLAP database is existed in the remote server and I just want to replace the existing one with the one just been updated in the SSIS package and the last task in the package is to copy the updated OLAP database and replace the one at the remote server. Hopfully during the copy and paste process it will not screw up the reports that are using the OLAP cubes at the remote server as the report data source. Thanks.

Using SSIS Packages To Process SQL Server 2000 OLAP Objects

Nov 16, 2006

Can a SSIS server, i.e. staging server be used to create packages that update SQL Server 2000 Analysis services objects on another server running SQL server 2000 OLAP? 

It appears that the OLAP connection manager ion SSIS supports only connections (and thus updates) to 2005 OLAP objects.  I work for a company that has a huge investment in a 3rd party DW that uses Analysis Services 2000.  the DW tool vendor will not support an upgrade to SSAS 2005.  We wish to extend the DW from other data sources.  My thought was to use a staging server with SSIS, used solely as the ETL tool for all new development (thus no more DTS development), and to update the sql server 2000 operational data store on another box. 

I can find no documentation on how to process sql server 2000 analysis services objects from within an SSIS package.   Any ideas?

Excel 2003 To SQL Server 2005 OLAP Cube Timeout Issues

Nov 13, 2007


Hola

We are getting symptoms of a 30 second timeout irrespective of what we do, but only on certain machines. Can anyone shed any light on how the connection timeout can be set, as there seems to be a factor overiding any settings we set?

We are working in Excel (2003) connecting to an Analysis Services 2005 cube through a website https://Datasource connection. When we edit the connection string that the file is using (either by forcing use of an exterior .ODC file and editing the settings in there, or by converting the xls spreadsheet into an xml spreadsheet and manually editing the connection string in there) we get no joy: after 30 seconds the error appears:


"Either a connection cannot be made to the [my server address], or Analysis services is not running on the computer specified".

This error is itself rubbish: If a smaller query (one that takes < 30 seconds) is run in the same Excel file and Pivot Table, it connects fine.
What really doesn't make sense is that the exact same file works on some machines and not others. These machines are all inside the same network (and the machines that work have been proven to work on a number of other networks). What's more there is no pattern to the machine capabilities - some newer / faster machines get the error. These machines (that work and do not) have excel 2003 SP3. (Another of the ones that works has Excel 2007).

Changing the connection string to include "Timeout=300" or "Connect Timeout=300" makes no difference, and "Command Timeout" causes a different error so that it wont even attempt to run the query (as opposed to collapsing after 30 seconds of normal progress).
Similarly in the .ODV the tags <ODC:CommandTimeout>, <CommandTimeout>, <ODC:Connect Timeout>, <ODC:Command Timeout>, <meta name=CommandTimeout content=1000> etc. have no effect (the file still gets the 30 seconds error rather than just giving up so no way of working out correct syntax)

The only pattern we can see, and we can't fix this, is that the machines that work have Retail versions of excel, and the ones that do not have corporately licensed versions of excel. We cannot see any difference between them in the Help >Abouts, but thought it might be worth mentioning.

Any help would be fantastically appreciated, we are out of ideas.
Thanks kindly
