This is not always, just some time, for example when I proof the cube on Microsoft Excel or After I backed up the databes of analysis
What can I do?
I'll thanks your quick answer
NOTE: My cube use MOLAP aggregations
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.

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 try to design a report with Chart based on an Analysis Services Data source...
It does'nt work !!!
Has anyone else the same problem??
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.
Is there away to pass in a query on the fly?
Thanks.
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,
i want to know whether it is possible to develop ADHOC reports using SSRS 2005 and OLAP Cubes. the requirement is the user should be able to select the columns he wants to see in the report.
I think this requires Dynamic RDL generation. It is very urgent. i have to give POC to the client on this. Any help in this regad is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am having a question on the SSAS2005 OLAP Cubes storage modes. We know SSAS2005 supports 3 different storage modes: ROLAP, MOLAP, HOLAP.
Do all these three storage modes of cubes store data in another physica analysis services databases which are inrelative from their data warehouse (in case they are built on top of the data warehouse)? (so it does not matter at all even we remove the data warehouse?)
Thank you very much in advance for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,

View 5 Replies View RelatedOn the subject of Data Warehouses, Data Cubes & OLAP….I would like to speak frankly about Data Warehouses, Data Cubes andOLAP (on-line analytical processing). Has it dawned on anyone elsethat these buzz words were created by some geek who decided to take astab at marketing? Knowing that to the backwoods manager who knowslittle of technology that new innovative names for old concepts wouldhelp to sale their products.I mean seriously, what is the story here? In a nut shell, and pleasestop me if you disagree, but isn’t a data warehouse simply adatabase? Can’t you do everything on a conventional databaselike SQL Server, Oracle or DB2 that you can do on these newproprietary Data Warehouse constructs? I mean who are they trying tofool?Take a look, for instance, at Data Cubes. Who hasn’t noticedthe striking similarity between data cubes and views used in all themore robust databases? Also, what about OLAP? OLAP is nothing morethan a report generator. There’s nothing you can do with thesemillion dollar price tagged Data Warehouse total solution packagesthat I can’t do with SQL Server, Oracle or DB2…for thatmatter Microsoft Access.As an example some sales people for Metadata Corporation has the VicePresident of I.T. in Nashville, for Healthspring, sold on their totalsolution data respository which is such a scam. All they had to dowas throw a couple of buzzwords at him and they have him hypnotized.Personally, I feel that these kinds of marketing practices undermineour industry. It helps to unravel what little standards orconsistency we have. What do you guys think?Stuart

Hi to all
Is there any option in sql server DTS or any other third party tool that can script data. By scripting data i mean that....
if a table "Employee" contains 50 rows, i want the tool to write 50 insert queries for me so that i can run in it anywhere.
Problem is i have to insert data in a remote server where i cannot use DTS. I just have a text area to write my query and press the run button..
Hope u understand my problem. In case of any explanation please reply. Waiting for your response. Thanx in advance.
by to all
Hello All,
Our OLAP environment involves an ETL/Data Warehouse/Data Mart server and a cube publisher server.
We would like to learn how to automate the Archival/Restore of OLAP databases. We are currently doing
it manually though OLAP Manager. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. James.

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?
Thanks,
Paulo Ortega
Hi everyone!
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...
Thank you!! :)

New to SSAS so, have some not so intelligent ???
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..
THank you

Hello Everyone,
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)
My question is how can I extract this from SSRS?
regards,
Abhishek.
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?
Thanks,
Kevin
