Hi

for me its not clear witsh processing occures on a full database prosse in
AM? When I process all dimension a incremental update will be done and I see
this in the prossessing activities.

An other thig that a don't understand is, when I make a full process on a
cube same dimensions are incremental updated. But I have't check the
incremental update in the window.

Thanks for any informations.

Marco

Hi Marco,

Thanks for your post.

From your descriptions, I understood that you would like to know when cube
process will occur on a full database in Analysis Manager. Have I
understood you? Correct me if I was wrong.

Based on my scope, we could learn from BOL that when you process a cube,
the aggregations designed for the cube are calculated and the cube is
loaded with the calculated aggregations and data. Processing a cube
involves reading the dimension tables to populate the levels with members
from the actual data, reading the fact table, calculating specified
aggregations, and storing the results in the cube. After a cube has been
processed, users can query it.

After making structural changes to a cube, you must process the cube before
attempting to browse its data. Process your cube after completing any of
the following:
-- Building the cube and designing its storage options and aggregations
-- Changing the cube's structure (measures, dimensions, and so on) and
saving the changes to the cube
-- Changing the structure of a shared dimension used in the cube

See the following documents for further detailed descriptions about this
