I created a DTS which does some data transformations before processing some cubes. It finished processing in abt 10mins when I run this DTS manually. However, when I schedule this DTS to run, it took around 3 over hours to run. Does anybody know where the problem lies? I have been looking for a solution for this for a long time and I'm hoping that somebody can help me...
I just finished migrating SQL 2005 - 2012 and I am having issues processing my cubes. I included the error message below with generic names, but I think it should be transparent. I seem to be having an issue with one of the logins, but which one. The error message points to "domain_nameserver_name$" with a $ at the end. I am assuming this is a SQL login? I have included the error message below:
I am running into a barrier and need to understand the average length of time that a fully optimized data cube should take to process.
We are currently running an average of 15 to 20 minutes per cube, with average of 2000 aggregations, 25% performance increase, and approximately 2 million rows, with around 40 dimensions and 30 measures.
I personally think this is a pretty good time to process. However, I am being challenged to reduce this time frame. In theroy I can't possibly see it getting below where we currently are. SO I am reaching out to the group of guru's...
What is your average length of time to process your Data Cubes? Please respond to me at ken.kolk@medcor.com I would greatly appreciate it and need the averages from the field.
I have virtual PC loaded on my machine .Everytime i try to view data in the Data Pane in Analysis Manager,it comes up with an error "Unable to browse the data(Unspecified error).I have tried restarting the DHCP services but has not no effect . Could someone please advice me.

I use the SQL Analysis Manager to create a cube and it can process successful, but when i want to browse the cube, it shows the error message: " Unable to browse the cube "my cube name", Unspecified error"
can anybody tell me what's wrong with that? thanks

I'm looking into adding OLAP Cubes as part of our software to be distributed with our OLTP and eventually OLAP databases. Is there any books that deal with distributing OLAP Cubes and or security. Our clients will have SQL Server with our databases. Thanks
I am working on datawarehouse using sql server analysis manager. I created a cube ..that is working fine but now i have to distribute to end users so how to do it and how many ways we can do that
1)can we make that .cub file 2)how can give access to endusers without giving access to database 3)how to host a cube and access from excel or any other software
I have a Analysis Servises installed in a Windows 2000 server and I created a cube on it. I created also an ASP page with Web Pivot Control to access the cube, but when the users open my ASP page they can´t access the cube. Their machines doen´t have Excell 2000 installed.
Is it necessary to heve the Pivot table Service installed in the user machine? Or I only have toinstall the Office Web Components ? Or both? If it´s true how can I install Pivot Table Service in the user machine? Is there a specific setup program to install it or is the same setup program used to install Analysis Services? How should I do this? Should I have a link in the ASP page to run the setup program? Should I do a download?
We have created Dimensional Model within SQL 2005 and created SSIS packages to load. We have Pk's on Dimensions and FK's on one Fact table. We are thinking about adding clustered index to Fact that consists of the FK's and order by the Hierarchy within the Fact by Dimension. IS THIS A GOOD IDEA IF WE DRILL DOWN AND DRILL THROUGH = QUESTION #1
We build a CUBE from the dimenionsal model and we do not know how to build indexes on the cube. SO DOES SSAS AUTOMATICALLY BUILD INDEXES IT THINKS IT NEEDS ON THE CUBE AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE?? ALSO IF WE HAVE INDEXES ON DIMENSIONAL MODEL DO THOSE GET USED BY SSAS CUBE THAT WE CREATED WITH AUTO BUILD??? = QUESTION #2..
I cannot seem to find a group where this question would fit so I amposting it here. I have what I believe is a unique situation. I amusing SQL Server Analysis Server to build a cube of "snapshot"month-end type of data. This data is from an instance of MicrosoftNavision and I have successfully used SQL-DMO and DTSPackage Libraryobjects to allow the user to rebuild the cube through Navision. Thisis accounting data and as such, the accountants want to be able toarchive this data by month. I know through Analysis Server Managerinterface I can copy the cube and save it to a different name.I would like to know if there is a way to programmatically save a cubeto a different name with some type of automation object?Thanks
I have defined a cube with translations on every dimension and measure group.
when I query this cube from BIDS, the captions of each column have text in the right language (whatever is chosen in BIDS at the time of query)
Now, my customers will be sending queries from SSRS. when i fire the MDX query from SSRS I want to extract the MEMBER_CAPTION dimension property (I think this will contain the translated text for each columns header)
While creating a model, i can access to relational tables as data source, but not to olap cubes. Is it possible to browse olap cubes for mining? If yes, how? Thanks...
I've not found much guidance so far about the pros and cons of mining OLAP cubes vs their underlying fact and dimension tables. Can anyone offer advice in this area, or point me to more info about this?
I need to use cubes in VS 2005 web project. I have no clue how to create cubes or use them in my web page. I am familiar with Reporting Services but not cubes. thanks in advance!
How can we allow users to access a MS SQL Server OLAP cube but restrict the level of data that he might see? I mean, if there is a cube with data for three different countries. How can one user be restricted to see data pertaining to only one of the countries and not the other two countries?
Does anyone know the best way to set up filters against the Cube data. Ex. The Cube was built with data for 1998,1999, 2000. The totals and the rollups will include the value for all years. Client A want to access the Cube Data through Excel 2000 but only wants to see the values for 1999 - with the correct totals and rollups...
I know you can uncheck the other years in the filters in excel, but the totals and rollups will still include the values summing for all years.
Can someone tell me how you can automate the refresh of OLAP Cubes? I just inhereted a data warehouse running on SQL7 and the idea of having to go in and manually refresh the cubes everyday is, well... stupid. I can't believe that they've been doing this for a year. Unfortunately, I'm not familar enough with MSOLAP yet and I can't figure this out. Any tips?
Hi All, any advice or help greatly appreciated, I need to Process Dimensions and Cubes Overnight, what is the best and most reliable way of achieving this.
Is there any way that cubes built on Analysis Server 2005 can be migrate or copy to Analysis Server 2000. I have built cubes on 2005 and i want the cubes to be also on another server whicih is unfortunately running Analysis Serviuces 2000. Is it poosible ?
I need to take a numeric value and add together the cubes of each single digit. The string length may vary from row to row.
As as example the number 1234 has individual cube values of 1 (1 cubed), 8 (2 cubed), 27 (3 cubed) and 64 (4 cubed). The resulting sum of the cubes is then 1+8+27+64 = 100. The same result would occur for 1243.
The purpose is to look for numeric values in a table where the same digits occur in two different rows but in a different order.
How can I create a function to apply to a varchar column to produce my integer result ?
