OLAP Tools?

Oct 4, 2004

So I am starting to look at an OLAP problem having been an OLTP DB wonk for several years.

All very nice. Am bending my head aorund cubes and the dimensions trciks and learing to choose them more carefully.

Have wokred through the various chapters of various SQL books (OLTP books with a couple of chapters of OLAP I admit) and am starting to feel if not comfortable with it at leats not compleetly terrified.

Now the Analysis manager in SQL is all well and good but I'm not about to hand it to the accounting monkeys that work here.

Does anyone have any suggetsions of some good OLAP specific books and any Cube viewing tools/suites/utilities that I can give to the computer-illiterate bean counters I work for?

many thanks

Steve

Backup Strategy - SQL2005 Tools Versus 3rd Party Tools

Jun 1, 2007

I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?

Design Tools / Sql Server Mgt Tools Cause Login Fail

Sep 20, 2007

Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET'
I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two
problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer,
not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works
anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks
 sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do.
last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??

SQL Tools :: Tools To Determine Version From BAK File

Apr 24, 2014

Is there - apart from the notorious RESTORE HEADERONLY - an tool which is able to tell which SQL Server version created a specific BAK file? I'm looking for a tool that can be used w/o an available/running SQL Server installation.

Alternatively, is there any documentation about what is read with RESTORE HEADERONLY so I could write a tool myself?

Where would I find the version "bytes" in a BAK file?

OLAP And ASP.NEt

Aug 2, 2005

Hi,


I am looking at deploying an ASP.NET site which accesses an OLAP database - Microsoft Analysis Services


My question is how is this normally done:



Straight SQL / Stored Procedures

3rd party Adhoc plugin

Anything else



If there is anyone out there with experience in using ASP.NET and
Analysis Services I would be interested in hearing how they did it -


Database Architecture
System Architecture



and any
pitfalls etc...


Thanks in Advance

I Can't See OLAP Databases ?

Jul 6, 2001

I was working with an OLAP Services Processing Task when I ran
into some difficulties. I was prompted with a message which told
me that the object could not be found.
When I went back to the OLAP Manager I was not able to see the
databases for that server.

Does anyone know why I can no longer see these databases i have
tried refreshing/rebooting......??

Thanks,

OLAP Security

Oct 2, 2000

Analysis services is installed on a Windows 2000 server (call it computer A) in Domain A. SQL 2000 has been installed on the server using mixed security. All of the SQL services are running under an account in Domain A (not local system).
The problem is the computer (call it computer B) I wish to run Analysis Manager on and use to administer the Analysis services on Computer A is in Domain B. There are no trusts between Domain A and Domain B.
Can Analysis services be administered by a computer in a domain not trusting the domain that the server running Analysis server is in?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

OLAP - Very Urgent

Dec 6, 1999

Hi,
Can anyone tell me where to fine some good help on designing Date type dimensions in an OLAP cube.
This particular thing has been a pain for me..
I have a Time dimension in my CUBE which has year-week-day as levels.
I want the week to start from Monday and span seven days ( naturally !! ). But OLAP surprises and entertains me by showing different number of days in every week. Whatever I do, it never starts a week on Monday and spans it for next 7 days consistently.

Help.

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

I'm trying to retrieve calculated members from a cube using the OPENQUERY function and a OLAP linked server, the results from MDX Queries are then stored to a SQL Server DB Table.

below is the error message I get:

Could not get the data of the row from the OLE DB provider 'MSOLAP'.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSOLAP' IRowset::GetData returned 0x80040e21: Data status returned from the provider: [COLUMN_NAME=[Measures].[first column] STATUS=DBSTATUS_E_UNAVAILABLE], [COLUMN_NAME=[Measures].[second column] STATUS=DBSTATUS_E_UNAVAILABLE]]

When I run the same query in MDX Sample Application it works fine!

Any help Please!
