Analysis :: More Than One Cube In One SSAS Database

Dec 13, 2010

Is it possible to have more than one cube under one SSAS database? For example I have a database "Test" and in this the cube exist is "TestCube", is iit possible to deploy another cube "TestCube2" under the Test databse?

If yes then what is the process to do that, the reason I am asing is there are some common dimensions used n both the cubes and I am not sure what is the best way so that I can use the shared dimension?

Analysis :: SSAS Model Where Never Need Cube To Be Offline

May 21, 2015

I am thinking of a possible design where the cube will never go offline.

Usually when I do some code changes on my cube the cube goes offline and I need to Full Process it again to get it back .

However , in cases where the cube is extremely critical for the business users , it would be great if I can deliver a solution where the cube never goes down.

Analysis :: Count Distinct In SSAS Cube?

Sep 8, 2015

Background: I have a Huge fact dimension table(table has both measures and dimensions) that i am using to build a SSAS Cube. 

The table didn't have a unique identifier, so the database team added ROW NUM as a column to the table which i am using as a PrimaryKey in my Cube build. I was able to create a cube successfully with it without any issues.

Problem: Now customers are asking for a 'Claim Count calculation' which shows the Distinct Claim Count. 

Its defined as below :

Count(Distinct Claim_Number || Claim Year || Claim Month)

. All the 3 columns are available in table, but when i am trying to create this Count Distinct Object in the DSV the Cube processing time increased by 5 times, as now i have to use a GroupBy function in my SQL.(There are around 30 columns to group by). 

Is there a better way to achieve this Count(Distinct Claim_Number || Claim Year || Claim Month) without using groupBy in DSV SQL logic? I cant seem to find any Count(Distinct) function in the Cube Calculation functions?

I am working on SQL 2012.We have a SSAS Cube build. On top of it client use Excel to connect to SSAS Cube and See the reports.My Cube process every hour and take almost a 1-2 min to Process.When ever End user/Client See or refresh the Excel report (Which use Cube as Source),WHEN CUBE IS PROCESSING ,they get an error that Source is not available

We Have tried best but cannot bring down the Processing time of the cube to 3-5 Second , so that End user don't face report refresh issue at the moment of cube processing 

Requirement :In Case End User see the report while Cube is processing from back end , Instead of Error they should see some customize Msg which we can provide some thing Like "Data is Refreshing , please wait ".

Analysis :: SSAS Multidimensional Cube On A Single Table

May 7, 2015

I have only 1 denormalized table that is being used in a SSAS Tabular model(which is about 3GB). I am doing a POC to convert it into a SSAS Multidimensional and explore it.

Table1
-----------------------
StoreName
StoreDesc
ItemName
ItemDesc
Qty1
Cost1
Price1
Amount1

1st Question) I am seeing that there is no Primary Key(unique key) in the current denormalized table. (Tabular Model didnt require any primary key). But i think for Multidimensional the key is mandatory? Should i generate a composite key myself in a Named Query based on this table(in the DSV)?

2nd Question) What is the best way to design my Multidimensional Cube/Dimensions based on this single table?

Say if i comeup with a Composite Primary Key called (PK_ID) . Should i be splitting up my facts / dimensions in my DSV using Named Queries similar to below(Using the same PK for my dimension tables also?)

a) FactTable = Select PK_ID, Qty1,Cost1,Price1,Amount1 from Table1
b) StoreDim =  Select PK_ID, StoreName,StoreDese from Table1
c) ItemDim  =  Select PK_ID, ItemName,ItemDesc from Table1

Would this work?

Analysis :: SSAS Planning / Forecast Copy Data In Cube

Oct 2, 2015

Is there any way to copy my Data of 2015 to the Planning/Forecasting Value of 2016?

My question is based on that we use INFOR ION BI right now and there we can just add an Button in our reports wich physically copies the value from one year to the next year based on some other rules in the cube.

Now I need to make this example work with SSAS and Excel PivotTables but I cant figure out how.

I have absolutely no clue where and how to accomplish it. Do I use Calculations, do I use Actions, do i make it in the Dataview, Cube or directly in Excel?

Analysis :: SSAS - Roles With Read Definition Access Are Not Able To See Data In Cube

Nov 25, 2015

I am facing a very weird issue in our SSAS database. We have several roles with 'Read definition' access. None of these roles are able to see data in the cubes. I have checked these roles over and over and there is no problem with the definition. Each of the roles have been given read access to Data Source, Cube and Dimensions.

The users are able to access the definition and structure of the cube i.e. they can see the measures & dimensions available but when they drag measures and dimension attributes in the browser (SSMS) OR execute an MDX - they get null values. The roles with 'Full Control (administrator)' access are able to see all the data without any issues.
 
I have tried the following:

1. Deleted all roles and re-created.
2. Created roles directly on SSAS DB.
3. Deployed all objects and processed the DB.
 
Each time only the admins are able to see the data.

Analysis :: Measures Showing No Rows In SSAS Browser After Cube Processed Ok And Calculate Command Is There

I've created a cube and it processed fine. The calculate command is there. The measure that I'm attempting to run in the SSAS/Visual Studios browser is simply a count rows measure.  When I drag the measure to the window, it says no rows available.  If I click on the filter that allows nulls, the only change it makes is that it goes from no rows available to "NULL".

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Small Database Fails In Excel Pivot Table Because Of Memory Shortage?

I have a very small SSAS database with around 35 Mb. I opened it on Excel 32 bits and started dragging fields to a pivot table and it started failing with memory errors. The behavior on the SSAS server was that memory started growing very fast until 8 GB (vm memory total) and then the error is reported in excel.

What might be the issue in such a small database? I would understand in a big database, but not on this one.

Analysis :: Cube Needs To Be Deployed From VS After SSIS Analysis Services Processing Task Completes?

May 13, 2014

I have a cube that we are processing nightly via an Analysis Service Processing Task in SSIS.  In order to increase the performance of the processing time, we elected to use a lot of rigid dimension attributes, and do a full process of everything in the SSIS task.  The issue that I am having is that after that task completes, I need to go into Visual Studio to deploy the cube becuase we are unable to browse or use the cube.  This issue seemed to start once we changed the SSIS Analysis Service Processing Task to do a full process on the dimensions, rather than an incremental.

I would expect that once development is done, and it is processed and deployed, that is it.  My thinking is that the SSIS task should just update the already deployed cube,

SSAS: Processing Cube Hangs

Aug 4, 2006

Hi,

I have a problem with processing my cube. My fact table (with telephone data) contains about 400,000 records... which is increasing rapidly (400,000 records is about 8 months of data)...
I have a few dimensions:
Dimension User: about 200 records
Dimension Line: about 200 records
Dimension Direction: 4 records
Dimension Date: 365 records for each year
Dimension TimeInterval: with 24 records

So far so good... when I process this dimension I have no problem....
However, when I add a dimension (CalledNumber, with exactly 101 records) the processing hangs as soon as it starts...

The SQL performed when processing the cube looks like this:

SELECT field1, field2,... fieldn
FROM table1, table2,.... tablem
WHERE
(table1.id=table2.table1id)
AND
(table2.id=table3.table2id)
...


When I execute above SQL in the Query Analyser from SQL Server Enterprise Manager, it ALSO hangs...

I am not really suprised by that, because this SQL first create a huge table of 400,000 x 200 x 200 x 4 x 365 x 24 x 101 records and after that works through the WHERE statements to filter out the appropriate records.

for me it would be more logical to use the following code to process the cube, but that cannot be changed in Analysis Manager:

SELECT field1, field2,... fieldn
FROM table1
LEFT JOIN table2 ON (table1.id=table2.table1id)
....
LEFT JOIN tablem ON (tablem.id = tablem-1.tablemid)


When I execute above SQL in the Query Analyser from SQL Servel Enterprise Manager, it does NOT hang, but performs the query in about 35 seconds....
But Analysis Manager does not allow me to change the SQL used for processing the cube...

What can I do to add more dimensions to my cube... (It will be more anyway after adding the CalledNumber dimension)??
any suggestions?

PS. forgot to mention: I use Sql Server 2000

I have an excel workbook, that has a pivot table in it where the data source is an OLAP cube. My problem occurs on the client machine, logged in as the client. I remote into the PC, and create a pivot table using the OLAP cube connection. I create the pivot table and everything works fine - I am able to browse the data with no issues. Once I exit the Excel Workbook, and come back in - I am no longer able to connect to the datasource. I have tried both saving the password in the connection and not saving it. It has made no difference.

Dynamically Add Partitions To A SSAS Cube

May 9, 2007

The environment here is SSIS ETL feeding a Fact Table. The Fact Table is pulled into SSAS as a cube and reporting services are handled there. I am on the ETL side and don't pretend to know all the processing that happens with cubes, etc.



What we are trying to accomplish is to add partitions to a Cube via the ETL processing. The partitions should be incremented by Day, i.e. 20070501, 20070502, etc.



This is currently processed manually by the Reporting developer and we are looking for an automated process to reduce errors and hand work.



I have explored the following objects: Partition Processing DataFlow Destination and did not find much documentation or examples on it's use. If you have any information on this stage, please reply with such.



The other option is the Analysis Services Processing Control Flow. I understand that we can process Analysis Server objects as part of our package. Is there a way to incorporate a Partitioning Script in this object? If so, how. Again, I did not find detailed examples on the use of this object.



If you have experience with either of these, please feel free to reply. I appreciate any and all comments.

Model Generation From SSAS Cube And Perspective Problem

Jan 14, 2008



Hi,


I have built two perspectives in a cube. Let's say: Sales and Projects. When I open my cube in Excel 2007 and I choose to open the perspective 'Sales' I see all sales related dimensions and attributes. When I open the perspective Projects I see all projects related dimensions and attributes.
So far so good...

But now I generated a report model from the cube. When I start reportbuilder I can choose between three perspectives, because the total cube is added as an perspective as well. Looks pretty good, and now I open the sales perspective, but...

I see al the entities in the model, even the ones from the 'projects' perspective! It doesn't have all the functionality though, but it is visible with all the entritbutes.

I hope somebody knows the solution to this problem. Thanks in advance.

I have tried searching the forums and cannot find anything really helpful. I have had one cube setup and a model generated before and all was workin, but i had to delete it and i recreated the SSAS cube from scratch.

My user account has admin rights on the cube and also on the servers.

Server is Windows 2003

Client is Windows XP.

Any one got anythoughts on this or how i can determine what is wrong.?

Many Thanks
