Hi,
Can someone tell me how I can manage different versions of my OLAP Database, in Analysis Services 2000 without having to use Archive database ?
I want only the design of my cubes and my dimensions. Is there any way to get the script of a cube?
Is there any tool available to do this kind of actions ?
Thanks in advance.

How to repair a corrupted OLAP database?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to restore a database of higher version to lower version.
E.g. I have created a database in sql server 2012, created some tables & procedures in that.I took Full backup of that database. Can I restore it to sql 2008r2 or any lower version.
I know direct restore is not possible, I have to use either import or export option or generating script,but i want to know is there any easy step to do so.

I have an ssis package that downloads a SQL Server 2000 database and restores it to a SQL 2005 server. Ninety-five percent of the time it runs just fine, but every so often the job fails and I get the following set of error messages in the log file. (I have had to delete some of the proprietary information for this message to satisfy my boss like putting in [Database name] in place of the actual name of the database in the error message).

Now, I checked and verified that my backup version of SQL Server is the same as the version installed on the computer I'm restoring too.
I have SQL Server on a production machine that I backed up and want to test a full restore on a dev machine to make sure it will work when I need it to.
Now that I've run the restore command on my tape backup and go to restart the SQL server service I receive:
Configuration block version 0 is not a valid version number. SQL Server is exiting. Restore the master database or reinstall.
I'm afraid I don't understand why this is happening. If the builds are the same, then shouldn't restoring the MASTER database have worked normally and I'd be able to restart the service now?
Any thoughts or suggestions?
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.

Hi,
I will create a OLAP DB, based on fact table with 30 millon of record, how I estimate the size of the OLAP database?
TIA
Abel.
I have tried to use Excel to access a database created through ODBC (connected to dataware house) on the OLAP server (SQL 2000)but failed. However I was able to use Excel to access the Food Mart 2000 database and cubes on the same server. If I use SQL AS Manager, then I can access both databases. Can someone explain why this happens? Since I am not a DBA or developer, I really appreciate someone can help me with this. BTW, SP3 for AS has been applied.

I need to be able to connect(JDBC?) to my MS OLAP database from my Web based Java application. Can this be done? if so how.
Your comments would be greatly appreciated
I have a SSIS package which is used to update the OLAP database daily. It includes various processes from the initial dropping of the raw data source tables, rebuilding it, dropping of the OLAP datamart tables (dimension tables and fact tables), re-building it, updating the OLAP dimensions and finally updating the OLAP cubes. I wrote a series of the Sql scripts to perform the tasks except the updating of the OLAP dimensions and cubes, and assigned them to the SSIS package. Everything is working great and it was scheduled with the sql agent to execute at the early hour everyday. We have a single server enviroment for the "Production/Processing" i.e. Database engine, SSIS, SSAS, SSRS are all installed on a single server. By the way we are using Sql 2005.
Recently we split the "Production/Processing" enviroment into two seperated servers. We purchase another server "Production" server and use the existing server as the "Processing" server. I want to copy the success updated OLAP database from the current server "Processing" server to the new "Production" server. How to copy an OLAP database between servers?
Idealy, I believe that the following 5 processes should be assigned after the completion of the OLAP cubes updated at the "Processing" server:
Stop the SSAS at the "Production" server.........I know how to do this in SSIS
Re-name the existing OLAP database at the "Production" server.......not sure how to do this
Copy the newly updated OLAP database from "Processing" server to the "Production" server. If the copy process is succeed, drop the OLAP database that has just been re-named at the "Production" server. If the copy process is failed, re-named the OLAP database that has just been re-named back to the original name.....not sure how to do this. Should it be a Sql script?
Start the SSAS at the "Production" server........I know how to do this in SSIS
Thanks

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.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have windows application (Basically a accounting system). I want to use either SQL authenticaion, or Windows authentication for my users of the application (Basically each db user will have their own account in Users for that db, so I can have sql control the access).
All access to the db is via stored procedures, but I want to have a set schema for each user type:
Supervisor
Manager
Data Entry
etc.
All with a predefined access to the proper stored procedures(So far fairly simple).
In addition to this I want to be able to set the specifics of that user in my .net application via a interface (so a user by default will have the pre-defined schema, when a supervisor opens this interface, they can add/remove access to other stored procedures)
Here's the issue. Is this the proper methodology to achieve this, because it's quite of bit of programming work. I don't want to do it then need to re-due everything.
Also should I use Windows Authentication, or SQL, or have a completly seperate table in the DB where I do manual authentication then have the .net application restrict the access?
Any help or comments on this approach will be helpful. Also ifanyone has found any articles or information similiar to what I am trying to accomplish, please point me in the correct direction.
Thanks.
Hello,
I have a sequence problem in a package and I'm unable to figure it out: I have a control flow with some elements in this specified order: a script task -> Execute SQL task -> Data Flow. The script task is responsible for setting a value on a package variable; this same variable will then be used to decide if the Data Flow is disabled or not (there's an expression on the DataFlow). However, it looks like the variable is being tested before the script actually writes it, how can I guarantee that the DataFlow's expression is evaluated only after the script task has ended? Also, I have tried putting each component inside their own sequence container and I get the same result
Thanks in advance
Folks,
Our client has requested that we change the export file name (PDF and others) to match the report name. Currently, the name is based on the report's filename (eg, foo.rdl exports as foo.pdf) -- this causes problems because the same RDL is being used for a few fairly different reports. Is this controllable at all?
thanks,

Hi
I have a main report and wanted to embed a sub report in the main table. This is pretty easy enough.
The main report lists the suppliers we have. And the sub report lists any sub suppliers affialiated to those suppliers.
I have set the sub report visibility settings to hidden and is toggled by the suppliers ID.
The problem is that NOT ALL suppliers will have sub-suppliers, yet when you run the report the user gets presented with the option to toggle all suppliers' ID.
Is there any way to have a main report that only allows the user to click on a suppliers ID when that particular supplier has a sub supplier?
Hi everyone:
I need to use the "SET ROWCOUNT" statement to limit the amount of data returned to the application in a query, I know that if "SET ROWCOUNT = 0" is not specified at the end of this stored proc all the next queries will return only the amount of records specified in the initial "SET ROWCOUNT" call, so I would like to know if a I can have something like the TRY-CATCH-FINALLY statement (in SQL-92 for SQL Server 2000, not in SQL 2005) to make sure the "SET ROWCOUNT = 0" is sent at the end even if an error is raised.
Can it be done?
Thanks for any help.
Hi,I'm writing an application that involves data that has a set of usersthat are allowed to perform certain operations on it.i.e. Only the row owner can modify a row, but there is a set of userswho can view it.At the moment, I've started to implement this by calling a UDF at thebeginning of each stored procedure that validates that the user isallowed to call the procedure on that particular row (trusting a higherteir to verify the user), and throws an error if they are not.I don't particularly like this solution, as I need a UDF for eachprocedure, and will have to re-write the udf's if the access ruleschange (which they might).Can anyone suggest a method of implementing a more generic rowpermissions system?Cheers,Ben

We have an odd OLE DB error here. We can create the connection but only lookup a handfull of tables that are in the database. (Maybe only 10 of 50 - of which I need the ones not being displayed) Even if I choose a table from the incomplete list and try and close the dialog I get the following error. We are trying to pull data from an IBM AS400 if that makes any difference. It did work in SQL2000 - Hope you can help us!!!

I have a problem at the company I work for. For historic reasons many developers and users know the sa passwords for SQL. Obviously this is not a good situtation to be in. Now the obvious answer it to just change this but for reasons unknown to sanity half of our applications are hardcoded to use sa passwords.
Now as a DBA coming into this this puts me in a tricky position as its impossible for me to control who is doing what etc. Is it possible to put triggers or something to monitor logins which will deny access to anyone accessing via the sa password not through an application. Ie if an application calls then the sa will have to be allowed but if a user using Query Analyser for example tries to use sa then they are denied access ?
Long term all these passwords are going to change but it the short term I still need to create some control on the system. Anyone have any thoughts ?

I have a few hundred data files that I need to process in groups from oldest to most recent. To that end, I have created staging folders for each date that appears in the file names (example: 20060213) and moved all of the data files to the appropriate folders.
I also have these folder names in a recordset that has been sorted in ascending order, so the oldest date should be the first record, the second-oldest date should be second and so on. My thinking is to use this recordset with a ForEach Loop Container to loop through each folder, but I am not sure if Integration Services will necessarily loop through the records in order.
Can someone tell me whether the records will be processed in order or suggest a better alternative to make sure the directories are processed in the correct order?
I have a one table with 30-second updates for many day's worth of data. What I'd like to do is only select out the datetime between, say 07:00:00.000 and 11:00:00.000 for each day.
select * from TableName where "timestamp"
between '2007-06-04 07:00:00.000' and '2007-06-04 11:00:00.000'
This works for one specific day. But I'd like a return of values for all possible days in the table (as opposed to just 2007-06-04).

Hello
if we generate a database file on a particular version of ms sql express and in time to come if there are a few more versions of ms sql express out there with the users - if we continue to package with our app a database file from an older version of sql express will that be a problem with users running a newer version of sql express ?
Also what about the converse scenario - where we ship a database file from a newer version of sql while the customer is still running on an older version.
Thanks,

Hey Folks!
I have a typical requirement by my client. On submitting a Update (Bulk) button a huge database operation starts. A huge bulk update operation need to be performed. This would take 2-3 minutes some times. Client wants a cancel button in this case where he can be given a way to cancel the database Transaction.
Please let me know in case if there is a way out.

I need to archive some data from an OLTP database. Unfortunately, some of the tables are growing rather large, and copying the data, and especially removing it based on record age, is a resource-intensive operation. My database must be available 24/7, and I can't have queries timing out, or I start losing business real fast. I was thinking of firing off the archive script and setting the process priority on it to something lower than normal, so it won't interfere with my OLTP processes.
Maybe someone can suggest a better solution?

Hi all,
Since some analysis services features are only available in Enterprise version , I have to upgrade my SQL 2005 server from standard edition to enterpise edition.
So I uninstall originial standard version of analysis service and install a Enterprise version. However, the analysis service is still a standard version after installation.
Is it possible to keep data engine as standard version and install a enterprise version of analysis service?
Thank you very much
