Analysis :: SSAS 2012 - Notification While Cube Is Processing

Apr 16, 2015

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 ".

SQL 2012 :: SSIS Processing Of SSAS Multidimensional Cube Fails?

Oct 31, 2012

All I get back is an error message of "Analysis Services Processing Task Error: A Connection cannot be made. Ensure the Server is running" The server is running, I can process the cube by connecting to the AS instance and right-click processing it.

I can process the cube by running the SSIS task inside of SSDT Just when I deploy the SSIS package (in Project mode) and then execute it do I get the error message.

SQL Server, SSAS, and SSIS processes are all running under the same account. SSAS is on a separate server from SSIS and SQL if that matters.

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

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,

Analysis :: SSAS Partition Processing

Oct 21, 2015

I am facing issue with partition processing. I am having a SSAS cube which is having 5 partitions. These partitions are processed through a sql server job using SSIS packages. In packages I used SSAS process task to do this.Now problem is, job is running successfully and showing that the step which is having partition process also fine.But data is not updating in the partition. While checking the partition properties, it is not updated with recent date and time.

When I try to manually process the partition, it is getting succeeded and recent data is getting reflected with recent date and time.Package configuration is done in job itself.

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?

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Model Processing Error

Nov 4, 2015

I get the following error while processing a SSAS tabular model (2014) on a new server.The SSAS service on this server is running under a login which has access to the SQL server data sources. I tried changing the provider to OLEDB from SQLCLNI11 in the connection string but that doesn't work too. The error message isn't useful to debug further.

The cube processing succeeds on a different server. I scripted out the cube DB and ran it on the new server and am trying to process full but it fails with the following error.

Analysis :: AttributeKey Not Found When Processing The Cube

Apr 21, 2015

I have designed a cube. It has two fact tables and some dimensions. Fact table to fact table is many to many relationship.

For example

FactMain
DataKey(PK), StartDateKey, PostCodeKey, TotalCost
FactBridge
DataKey(FK), ProductKey(FK), Position  - PrimaryKey on DataKey + ProductKey + Position
DimProduct
ProductKey(PK), ProductCode

Cube is built successfully, processed successfully.When I try to process the cube from agent job, I am getting error "Attribute key not found: tablename, value..." I have added a job step to run AnalysisServices Command. I have taken the command from cube process script(taken from manually process the cube and take script generated). I used ProcessAffectedObjects = "true" in the script. When I checked the tables, the key does exist. Why am I getting this error?

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 - Dimension Processing Failing Due To BitLocker Encryption

I'm facing an issue while processing OLAP. I have enabled BitLocker for dirve encryption and OLAP services uses this drive for db storage. OLAP is executing though SSIS package and I'm getting below error in Package. When debugging the script, it says Drive is encrypted using BitLocker. 

My client requires TDE for all databases, for OLAP we decided to use BitLocker: [URL] ....

SQL server is installed on C Drive & D Drive is the storage location for OLAP DB. When locking D Drive, OLAP processing failed. When I tried to restart SQL Server Analysis service in Services.msc it is not starting. Service restarted only when D Drive is unlocked. Is there any way we can process OLAP even when the drive is locked?

Error message is given below:

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.

Analysis :: Looping AMO Objects Versus Using SSAS Built-in Parallel Processing?

Jul 22, 2015

I am creating an SSIS Script Task that will be used to process SSAS dimensions and partitions and ideally log the details of each in a table. Any info on the benefits or drawbacks of using the built-in SSAS parallel processing as opposed to doing it manually in a multi-threaded "Parallel.Foreach" loop using the .NET AMO library.

In my testing, when I use a Parallel.foreach loop, I am able to obtain and log information about the object such as end time and time to process immediately after each object is processed.  This allows me to keep a history of processing time for each object:

public void processDimensions(Server Server, Database Database, ProcessType processType)
{
Parallel.ForEach(Database.Dimensions.OfType<Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Dimension>(), d =>
{
DateTime beginTime = DateTime.Now;
try
{
d.Process(processType);

[code]....

If circumventing the built-in SSAS parallel processing is not best practice I'd like to know in advance before I go too far down that path.

Analysis :: Processing / Deploying Adventure Works Tabular Cube

Sep 14, 2015

I am trying to create a Adventure Works Tabular cube in my developing machine and im having problems deploying the tabular cube (the DW database was firstly attached without problems)

So I'm having problems processing Adventure Works Tabular Cube, the problems are somewhere between SSAS project configuration and running privileges, i think. I'll describe exactly where i am:

- in SSMS 2012, connections, tables and roles and roles are empty, i only have the full name of the database when I try to process i get an error "the table with id of "product category 92583829......", Name of Product Category refereced by the model Cube, does not exist. An error ocurred when loading the model cube, '?c:program filesmicrosoft
sql serverMSAS11.MSSQLSERVEROLAPDataAdventureWorks Tabular model SQL 2012.0.dbModel.21.cub.xml'. (Microsoft AnalysisServices.)"

- in SQL Server configuration Manager, I have
Sql Server (MSSQLSERVER) running with account NT ServiceMSSQLSERVER
Sql Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) running with account .L.ABCDE , which is my account, i've changed because i've read somewhere that i could have problems with privileges.

(Note: it's strange because SSAS is tabular, i can see a blue rectangle (sort of) in SSMS but in configurator manager seems to be a cube.)

- in SSAS Project i unzip a clean copy of the project and the first error is that BIM file can't be found, it try's to find server TOSHIBA_S50_BTAB, but as i have only tabular SSAS running, i replace for TOSHIBA_S50... And some time ago it worked, now it doesn't even found TOSHIBA_S50_B?!!!!

Analysis Services Processing Task - Cube No Longer Updating

Oct 19, 2007



We have set up an IS package to process an AS 2005 database (comprising cube & dimensions, etc) daily, via a SQL Server Agent job on both development and production systems. This has been working fine for months.

A new dimension was added to the cube on the development system - automatic processing via the IS package continued without issue. However, when the new dimension was added to the production system the IS package no longer processes the cube correctly. Although all appears ok (and all is present and correct in the logs), no data updates to the cube are made. Only when the cube is manually processed does the cube get updated.

Anyone got any ideas about how to get around this issue? We have created a new IS package, with a single Analysis Services Processing Task, and tried this but get the same outcome.

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.
