Combine 2 cubes with transparent partition but failed in cell count match

I have 2 cubes:
Cube A DIMENSIONS(YTD, YEAR, PRODUCT, LOCATION) + MEASURES
Cube B DIMENSIONS(YTD, YEAR, PRODUCT, LOCATION, BE_TYPE) + MEASURES
Both cubes have the same YTD AND YEAR.
It is comparable for A.PRODUCT,GEN2 VS B.PRODUCT,GEN3
It is comparable for A.PRODUCT,GEN5 VS B.PRODUCT,GEN6
It is comparable for A.LOCAITON,GEN2 VS B.LOCATION,GEN5
It is comparable for A.LOCATION,GEN5 VS B.LOCATION,GEN5
Most measures have the same name between 2 cubes.
Some are not.
Now I need to combine 2 cubes into 1 for OBIEE usage.
Criteria:
1. Include all YTD and YEAR
2. Combine A.PRODUCT,GEN2 & B.PRODUCT,GEN3
3. Combine A.PRODUCT,GEN5 & B.PRODUCT,GEN6
4. Combine A.LOCATION,GEN2 & B.LOCATION,GEN2
5. Combine A.LOCATION,GEN5 & B.LOCATION,GEN5
6. All data from Cube B are selected with B.BE_TYPE = 'TYPE_A'
7. Combine ALL MEASURES FROM 2 CUBES.
So, I am working on transparent partition with source = Cube B and target Cube A inside EAS.
However, I cannot match the cell counts.
Do you have suggestions? Any hints on my cases?

thanks, in my case,
YTD and YEAR contain the same members and names.
Number of measures of two cubes are the same.
However,
1. A.PRODUCT,GEN2 & B.PRODUCT,GEN3
2. A.PRODUCT,GEN5 & B.PRODUCT,GEN6
3. A.LOCATION,GEN2 & B.LOCATION,GEN2
4. A.LOCATION,GEN5 & B.LOCATION,GEN5
the number of members of 2 cubes are not the same. Since the Product ID contained in A.PRODUCT,GEN5 is the not same in B.PRODUCT,GEN6. Infact I wonder how I can make them matched. It is because my purpose is to combine all these different product into one dimension (just like union them into one column), so their number must not match.
Am I correct? How can I handle this case?

  • Using AGG/CALC DIM function in the BSO target cube of Transparent Partition

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use AGG("dimension") on a dimnesion in the BSO cube that is a target cube for a BSO-BSO Transparent Partition/
    I have created the partition area with 3 dimensions, one being 'Source'. 90% of the source members are being refrenced from source to target via that transparent partition. But I still have the 10% Source members in the target cube that need to roll up to the 'Source"(along with the 90%) for correct aggregation.
    When I try to use AGG("Source") in a FIX statement that's within the partition area, I get the following error:
    Error: 1042013 Network error [10054]: Cannot Receive Data
    Error: 1042012 Network error [10054]: Cannot Send Data
    Can I not aggregate the dimension in the Target cube?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    We have the same problem.
    I try to create transparent pertition between BSO (as a source) and ASO (target) and have the same warning message.
    Just to eliminate possible effect of outline complexity I created very simple DBs with the following outlines:
    __For ASO:__
    mes1
    mes2
    Measures
    prd1
    prd2
    Products
    Actual
    Adjustment
    Scenarios
    __For BSO:__
    mes1
    mes2
    Measures
    prd1
    prd2
    Products
    Adjustment
    Scenarios
    In addition to the message I have the following behavior - ASO has data in "Actual" scenario, BSO has data in "Adjustment" scenario. Before partition definition I can see the data in the right places, but when the partition created, Actual data disapeared from report of ASO. It is still in the database, and when the partition removed - appears again.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you in advance,

  • Calculate cubes using transparent partitions

    hello,since I have had a transparent partition to my cube (my cube is the target) the calculation duration increases dramaticaly although the calc script do not fix on the members used in the partition.Have you already met this problem? Is it possible to define particular parameters to avoid this increase?many thanks for your help!

    I have hesitated to suggest this because it involves changing more than your environment and calc, and it may not even be appropriate for you, but it would definitely help if you can do this.Instead of having 2 cubes, use 3 (ouch). The current cube becomes a facade to the two source cubes that contain data, call this CUBE_Facade, and also copy it to CUBE_SRC_Current (dropping the members mapped to CUBE_Source), and then CUBE_Source becomes CUBE_SRC_History. You should get the idea from this layout.Now for the calc. You wouldn't perform this on CUBE_Facade, but directly on CUBE_SRC_Current. If you further want to ensure that users don't interfere, you could temporarily drop the partition, but for a 3 minute calc I doubt this is a concern for you (if it is, you should also know doing it this way is a lot easier and cleaner than trying to kick users off and disabling logins). Security would also be associated with the facade, but it doesn't hurt to set it on all cubes (the users would have the ability if not the knowledge to connect to the source cubes, after all).Aside from the approach above, I can only surmise that perhaps the fix that limits your calc to the current portion (time/scenario?) doesn't account for variance formula's (even if dynamically calculated?). A solution for this may exist be making them stored (another ouch), and calculating them in a script instead of with a formula? I'm only guessing that this might help, or that the situation even applies.

  • MDX / BSO calculations with transparent partitions - Recursive reference

    Hi Everyone,
    I am using Essbase v11.1.2 and have an empty ASO cube that has transparent partitions to several ASO source cubes. However, I would like to use MDX in the target ASO cube to pull data from one cube, but make it available to all queries from other cubes.
    Eg. Empty Target ASO cube TrgtASO has VOLUMEmetric and versions Ver1, Ver2 and Ver3. I have 3 ASO source cubes for each version.
    SrcASO1 is only cube with volume data
    SrcASO2
    SrcASO3
    I had created a metric called "Vol-All versions" in the TrgtASO cube and tried to use MDX fornula ([Version].[Ver1],[Measures].[VOLUME]) so that no matter what version is selected, the data will always be from SrcASO1.
    It works if I have all data in one cube and load data only into Ver1. However, for performance and query reasons, I need to put each version into it's own cube.
    My question is do transparent partitions allow recursive retrieval of data?
    I.e. If I log into TrgtASO cube and pull metric "Vol-All versions" but have either Ver2 or Ver3 as the version, is there an MDX formula that will pull the volume from Ver1 cube?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • ASO Cube with BSO Partition as a Target

    Hi,
    Can someone please explain me the following because after reading different blogs as well as some other Essbase documents I am not able to understand,
    What is the actual use of having a BSO Transparent partition (target) of an ASO cube (source)?
    How exactly does the Write-Back functionality works if I have a BSO Transparent partition (target) of an ASO cube (source)?
    And lastly, in what business scenario one would implement a BSO Transparent partition (target) of an ASO cube (source)?
    Your help is much appreciated.
    thanks,
    fikes

    I have a situation where I have a BSO (target) on top of an ASO (source).  This was to try and resolve the dynamic time series (where time and periods are in different dimensions).  The DTS works almost great in the BSO partition.
    The other problem (or why we wanted to go to ASO) was that BSO cubes do not handle attributes across partitions (we have quarterly data in transparent partitions) to the target cube. -- but we do have dynamic time series.
    What I'm facing now it that the attributes work in the BSO (target) except when using a dynamic time series.
    The attributes are defined in both the BSO and ASO cubes.
    Any suggestions on how to handle attributes AND dynamic time series ?

  • Dynamic calculation with transparent partition

    suppose i have 2 transparent partitions, one point to A essbase, to get base data, the other point to B essbase,
    to get adjustment data, can i setup a dynamic formula in target essbase like this: total=base+adjustment?

    You would have to do it the same way you would if the data was all in one cube. You will have to have either a dimension or member rollup with "after Adjustment" = "Before Adjustment" + "Adjustment".
    All the partioning does is get the adjustment data from your "B" cube - it still must have its own "home" in the top cube where the dynamic calc happens.
    To put it another way every target cell in the target cube must come from one and only one source cell - no addition of multiple sources as it flies throught the transparent partition definition. (note that a source cell can go to multiple target cells).

  • Oxford Mercury series instruments : Works with NI-MAX but fails with Labview

    Hi,
      I am trying to interface an Oxford Instruments "Mercury Series" power supply for superconducting magnets, I am using Labview 2013 and an NI USB-GPIB-HS.
    The problem I have is the following:
    1.  After connecting the instruments I run NI-MAX (ver 14.0) to check that the instruments are recognized by the GPIB-bus. Everything goes fine, the instruments are detected and I can communicate with it by typing commands in the 488.2 communicator. Read and write both work fine.
    2. Then I try to write my own code in Labview to run the instrument.  The standard 488.2 commands Send/Recieve or GPIB-Write anf GPIB-Read do not work.
    There are other instruments on the same bus also - which work fine with both NI-MAX as well as my vi-s from Labview.  I have tried doing the "obvious" things
    like intialising the GPIB before sending any command and then do a Device Clear for the specific instruments before sending other commands.
    3. So the question is : What can be the reason for an instrument to respond correctly via NI-MAX but fail to do when addressed from Labview with essentially
    similar basic commands?
    I have tried tracing the origin of the errors via I/O trace (NI-spy), but they didn't help in locating the precise problem.
    Would be grateful if somebody could suggest an answer.
    Have other people faced this before?
    Thanks-
    Kanti

    The instruments are actually newer  (rather than an older version). You are correct that they need an extra "\n" after the command string - which I had provided.
    The command tryped in NIMAX was simply  "*IDN?\n"   in response to which  the instrument sends its identification string correctly. 
    All other commands also worked properly.
    I then tried the same in Labview using   "Send" and "Recieve". The Recieve generates the error.
    I am attaching the trace file (converted to txt) and the VI. Line 10-14 has the error.
    Thanks

  • Combining selectOneRadio with other content but text?

    Hi!
    I got a quite simpel task I am currently not able to manage with JSF. I want to combine some Radio-Buttons with content like images or video, simply showing a radiobox in front an image and another and so on.
    So in terms of JSF i thought i had to combine selectOneRadio, selectItem and graphicImage tags. But this doens't work. According to api selectOneRadio-Tags can only contain selectItem- or selectItems-tags.
    So how can i manage to show some other content behing my radio buttons without writing my own tag? Mus be an eady solution...i hope ;o)
    Thanks!

    Hi all.
    I know this thread is quite old, but does anyone knows (now) if there is a simple solution, or one need to write a custom compoment?
    What I need is also a group of radio buttons with an associated image instead of text.
    Thanks.

    Look like it is expecting Conio, which was a MS only console IO API. There are some implementations of Conio for Linux though. It might be worth learning ncurses, to just replace the Conio bits.

  • Problem : App works with Sun App server 8.0 but fails with 8.1

    Hi All
         I am experiencing some strange problem with executing my JSF application with Sun App Server.
         I have an EAR deployed on Sun Application Server 8.0 and 8.1.
         Strangely it works quite fine with 8.0 but fails with 8.1.
         In my JSP page ..I have a dummy component whose getter method is used as a "FormLoad" event of the page.
         <h:form id="imageForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
         <h:messages showDetail="true" />
         <table width="980" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#A9B8C2">

              .......setMiddleAreaList......
              .......setSelectedMiddleArea.....
              ........set the values of the individal component...
         I am retrieving all the data from DB in this getter method and intializing the components on the JSP page.
         I have also checked the code generated for JSP by both the servers.I am posting the code here for reference although
         i did not find any significant difference between the two...

  • How do I transfer a .psd file to illustrator that can then be placed in Muse as a .svg with transparent background?

    I just wrote all this up in another thread.  I did not realize at the time that the last post was in 2014, so I'm giving it a go here.
    I am currently trying to create an .svg using Photoshop .psd file (with layers in tact).  I'm new to these products so it may be obvious to others that the above intention was to eventually place the .svg in some sort of website creation software such as Muse.  Which is precisely what I am attempting. However, I am getting a white background once I place or copy and paste into Muse.  My starting .psd has a transparent background without any hidden layers causing this problem.  To test this I placed the .psd file into Muse and it still has a transparent background.  However when opening or placing this file into illustrator, it picks up a white background. If I do exactly as described above, I still get the same result.  So far I have tried:
    1) Simple copy and paste from Photoshop .svg to illustrator to Muse.  Result - white background.
    2) Placing the .psd in illustrator, then placing the .svg file in muse.  Result - white background.
    4) I have also tried the every combination of 1 and 2. - Result - white background.
    3) I have now created a path in Photoshop from the text layer to yet again attempt the above methods.  Result - white background.
    I'm including an image of the object I am trying to place with transparent background, but I have both a flattened rasterized version, a version complete with layers and a third (.svg) with the corresponding objects.  I am completely new to Illustrator as of today so any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
    Link to .psd file "Welcome text"

    I was having some difficulties getting the correct dimensions of one of my objects, I eventually solved this problem without using svg.  It was pretty simple when I stopped trying to over complicate things.  I just linked the object to a near by object in photoshop, merged and placed it all as one.  It looks great now.  Thanks for your reply.  You are correct, SVG was not the answer.

  • InDesign CS3 - Detect Edges does not work with transparency

    I have three machines running at home. One is a PowerMac G5 running OS X Tiger and Adobe CS3 Master Collection. The other two are new Intel iMacs running OS X Leopard, also with the CS3 Master Collection.
    My problem is this: On the PowerMac G5, I can create an image in Photoshop that has a transparent background with a cut out object. When I place this object on a page in InDesign, I can use the Detect Edges feature in the Text Wrap panel to automatically detect the edges of my object with its transparent background.
    However, when I do this same procedure on the new iMac, InDesign fails to detect the edges of the object. This does not seem to be dependent on whether the image was created on the iMac or the PowerMac.
    What I have discovered, is that the Detect Edges feature works on the iMac if the image has a solid white background, whether on the same layer as the object (i.e. 1 layer) or as a separate layer behind the object.
    So, if anyone out there, or particularly one of the developers over at Adobe, could check on this issue and find out if my case is an anomaly or a real bug, that would be terrific.
    Thanks!

    No need to need to get into a tif. I was merely pointing out that your response wasn't directed to the OPs request.
    Jared isn't asking how things work, he's asking if they work the same for other users as they do for him with the little complication that they work for him in two different ways.
    >So, if anyone out there, could check on this issue and find out if my case is an anomaly or a real bug, that would be terrific.
    Jared,
    I can't talk for Tiger. I have an iMac running 10.5 and detect edges does not work for me with transparency. But there is a difference in the text wrap options between a transparent background and a white one. When an image with a white background is selected, the Alpha channel is greyed out. With a transparent background the Alpha channel becomes available, and when selected another field is generated. [Alpha: Transparency]
    Are those options not available on your G5?
