Default Adding new measure in current partition - 02-17-2006 , 11:24 AM






Hi,
I have a cube with 4 partitions for last 4 years. All the partitions reads
same view and partition is set up date (Year). I do full process of current
partition and don't touch old onces. I need to add new measure in to cube.
My questions is do I have to full process all the partitions or there is a
way to just full process last/current one. Even old one comes with blank data
that is fine with me but I trying to find a way not to process old ones...

What i find out if I make any change to cube and save I lose all the
partitions data... Is there any way to just process only current.

I am working on AS2000 and Rel. DB is SQL Server 2000.

Thank you - Ashok

when you change the definition of a cube all partitions become outdated.
once you save the cube all partitions are truncated. (saving the cube with a
new definition)
you must reaggregate and reprocess all the partitions.

but you can process the current partition first, and the historical
partition later
