Criteria for building Aggregates

Hi Friends
I need to build aggregates on the top 10 worst performing queries according to this criteria..
1. No. of navigation .
2. DB Time > OLAP Time.
3. Ratio of selected records from DB to transferred Records.
I have found out already 10 queries.
But I need to know that whether these queries are already using these aggregates or aggregate are already built for these queries.
Could you please tell me the procedure how to proceed furthur.
Thanks

Hi,
There are a few SAP notes on the same which discuss this in detail.
Note 356732 - Performance Tuning for Queries with Aggregates
Note 166433 - Options for finding aggregates (find optimal aggregates for an InfoCube)
Note 202469 - Using aggregate check tool
Note 646402 - Programs for checking aggregates (as of BW 3.0B SP15)

What are the guidelines for creating aggregates?

Hi Everyone,
I am required to create aggregates for an infoprovider.
On what guidelines and criterias should I determine how many aggregates to create and what characteristics should be included in the aggregates?
For example if i have 5 queries created for this infoprovider and the selection inputs for each query is different. The number of characteristics displayed in the query is also different.
Does it mean I should have 5 different aggregates for this infoprovider?
Thanks.

Shunhui.

you may not need 5 aggregates
Tips for Building (and Maintaining) Good Aggregates:
-Relatively small compared to parent InfoCube
-Try for summarization ratios of 10 or higher
-Not too specific, not too general should serve many different query navigations
try to combine characteristics used in query and check the summarization ratio and get the best combination,
e.g aggregate contains char1, char2 have good ratio
and char3,char4 and char5 have another good ratio,
then you just need 2 aggregates.
hope this helps.

How can i choose charecteristics while building aggregates on zsd-c03

Hi Experts,
I would like to build aggregates on my sales infocube. In this infocube having 6 dimensions,
When we are building aggregates on characteristics how would i know on which characteristics want to choose for aggregates is there any t.code to measure size of the dimension.
Can you please share you valuable ideas.
Regards
Siri

Hi
Genrally when we create aggregates ,we will follow some guidelines.
1.If aggregation is more than 10
2.If DB ratio is morethan 30.
We can check these in the following t_codes
ST03,RSDDSTAT& RSRT
When we create aggregates,u will get popup whether to create urself or system proposals.U can get info from system proposals also.
Assign points if useful.

Building Aggregate on a Infocube

Hi all,
We are planning to build aggregates on a Infocube to improve the query performance. The problem is, I couldnt check the query runtimes in ST03 as the cube is not a statistics cube. so, i dont know which query is taking more time and which characteristics should i choose to build an aggregate. Please help me in answering the below questions:
1. Can i build only one aggregate on a infocube or more than that? How do we decide how many aggregate can be built on a Infocube?
2. How to identify the characteristics to be added to the aggregate?
3. There are also Navigational attributes in my Infocube, should i consider that also when i build aggregates?
Please advice me. Thanks
Regards,
Murali

hi,
chk the query performance in RSRT, query is not mandatory to be statistics query.
1. Can i build only one aggregate on a infocube or more than that? How do we decide how many aggregate can be built on a Infocube?
you can have any number of aggregates on cube but built on requirement.decide char based on the char you have used in rows of reports
2. How to identify the characteristics to be added to the aggregate?
char in rows of report is mostly used for aggregates
3. There are also Navigational attributes in my Infocube, should i consider that also when i build aggregates?
in the report if you used nav attr then you can use that also.

When we build aggregates?

When we build aggregates? Actually, why we will go for aggregates? When we execute BEx report that it will fetches the data, how can u know whether it is fetching the data from aggregates or data targets?
thanks
chinna

Hi ,
we prefer aggregrates for the query performance improvement substantially .
Based on the two thumb rules we will go for the aggregate def .
a ) if the no of records that r fetched from the database is ten times more than
that r being displayed .
b) when the database time is 30 per of the total time .
it is generally suggested to go for the aggregrates based on the system propositions. As it will help in creating a good one.
Some donot's when aggregating ..
Do not go for the aggregates that r too specific to a query, propose those which r general.
Agg should be less in size than that of the IC.
Old n infrequent agg's should be shown a way out ..
and ur last query answered here ..... when ever a query is looking out for a data the hierarchy would be
OLAP init
OLAP cache
Aggrgates
n finally the infocube .

While building Aggregates on IC_C03, any precautions? Urgentttt

Hi All,
I got a requirement that i need to build aggregates on an Inventory cube.
While building Aggregates on IC_C03, do we need to take any precautions.
System will also propose, thats ok.
And when it comes to compression, Roll up...
Compression in a cube is not done still.
It can be done after roll up also right !
And in the process chain, i need to add roll up process type & at the same time, how about the Compress process type.
What is the sequence we should have in a process chain if we need to add roll up & compression process types.
Points will be rewarded for sure.

sequence of process types in process chain is ..first fill up the aggregates, then roll up and compression

Cannot build aggregates

Hi,
For which chars we cannot build aggregates.

Hello,
In general, you can create aggregates on any characteristics defined in the InfoCube.
the following documents can clarify your questions,

How to use Add Query Criteria for the MySQL data Base in Netbeans ?

How to use Add Query Criteria for the MySQL data Base in Netbeans Visual web pack.
When the Query Criteria is add like
SELECT ALL counselors.counselors_id, counselors.first_name, counselors.telephone,counselors.email

Could anybody look into this issue.
Many thanks

TF215097: An error occurred while initializing a build for build definition : Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel

Hello,
We are facing an issue when triggering a new build using TFS 2013 Update 4, VS2013 Update 4 using TFVCTemplate.12.XAML template. All our other older build definitions just work fine but not the TFVCTemplate.12.XAML. It seems to me that some certificate
might be invalidated. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks,

Hi Mitul,
Thanks for your reply.
It’s strange, if your old build definitions can work using the same TFS Build Server, that indicate your TFS Server configuration is correct and can works. But only new build definition with default TfvcTemplate.12.xaml template cannot build successful.
Please share your TFS Server detailed environment information here. And share your
Build Service Properties dialog screenshot here.
Try to clean the Cache for TFS 2013 manually(delete the content of the folder only, not the cache folder itself):
Clean the Cache folder on Server machine. The folder path is:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Application Tier\Web Services\_tfs_data.
After cleaned, on Server machine, click Start and select
Run… to open the dialog box, then input iisreset.exe and click OK, wait it run completely.
Additionally, you can run the TFS 2013 Power Tools BPA to scan the installation of your TFS Server.

Can't get around this error after adding second dataset...A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset

I added a dataset to an existing report and broke an aggregation. In the old (i.e. single dataset) report, this expression below worked fine. I wanted to get a distinct count of the vst_ext_id field when my educated field was like "VTE1*"
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE1*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value, Nothing))
After adding a new dataset, this no longer works and I get the error " A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset". Having done some research online, I found that I
needed to specify my dataset explicitly and I thought this new expression might work, but still no success...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value,"DataSet1" like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,"DataSet1", Nothing))
Am I missing something? Based on online responses, this explicit dataset naming convention seems to help most people, but it isn't working for me.
Thanks in advance!
Brian

I found the answer. Apparently, my expression syntax was off. This expression does the trick...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,Nothing),"DataSet1")
I just happened upon this particular syntax searching online. I was trying to specify the dataset name after each .value, but I never got that to work. This is the only time I have found this particular syntax online.

Search criteria for insert/update bdoc

Hi All,
In our set up we have ecc to crm replication of BP. If one goes and checks the extension data of a stuck bdoc it has an Object Task- Insert or Update.
Can someone help me with search criteria so that i can pull out bdocs which have an Insert as the Object task ??
We have search criteria for errored/intermediate state bdocs; for inbound vs outbound; bdoc type etc etc..
Need one based on Insert/Update Task so that any new data replication if stuck with its very first bdoc( Insert type) can be immediately queried.
Regards
Abhinav

Hello Abhinav,
I do not think that we have such a search criteria to search for BDocs based on the Task Type, which comes under the
data part of the BDoc.
One alternative way is to find out in which table these data gets stored and write a program to fetch the revelent Bdocs.
Hope thisl helps!

No Disk meet the criteria for Solaris installation

Hi all, I have a problem when trying to install Solaris 8 (Intel) on my PC. There are some funny things happened while installing the OS.
1.) My motherboard does not support booting from CD-ROM, so I downloaded a Device Assistant Boot Disk to boot it up. Then I use dd.exe to make the boot disk from the image, I have tried many times that after creating the boot disk, this boot disk will contain 512 bytes of bad sector. So why?
2.) After using this boot disk to boot up and install the OS, before entering to the detection of the bus type stuff (still on the white screen), at the bottom of the screen, it says "ata_command select failed ... ...", what does this mean?
3.) When the system go back to the white screen with language selection, I choose English (which is 1), and the system try to find my hard disk, but it failed and says "No Disk meet the criteria for Solaris installation" with a new line saying "installation documenation found.". So what is happening?
Appreciate for any help.
Wallace

Did you check that your adaptec scsi controller is
supported by solaris and/or has a working driver
(from sun or adaptec) ?

ADF FACES: how to preserve the sort criteria for an af:table

How can I preserve the sort criteria on an af:table across page invocations? I've searched all through the forum and I don't see anything on this topic.
I simply want the sort criteria (from when the user clicks on a column header) to be remembered across multiple uses of the page. I know that the control handles this itself for multiple invocations of the same page (like when you page through the table). But I need to preserve the sort order so I can install it again when someone leaves the page and then returns to it.
I've tried various attempts using a SortListener to record the sort criteria, but I can't figure out how to reinstall the criteria without generating exceptions from the table control.
Any pointers on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Larry.

Ok, I've solved the problems with the odd behavior by always creating a new model when the table data changes and copying the sort criteria into the new model, like this:
        // Construct our own CollectionModel from this result set
        if(_model == null) {
            // Construct the initial data model and set the starting sort criteria
            ListDataModel m = new ListDataModel(results);
            _model = new SortableModel(m);
            // Set the sort criteria to last name
            ArrayList criteria = new ArrayList();
            criteria.add(new SortCriterion("lastName", true));
            _model.setSortCriteria(criteria);
        } else {
            // Construct a new model so the table "sees" the change
            ListDataModel m = new ListDataModel(results);
            SortableModel sm = new SortableModel(m);
            sm.setSortCriteria(_model.getSortCriteria());
            _model = sm;
        }But, I end up with one final thing that doesn't work. In the "then" clause above, I try to set the initial sort criteria for the table - it has no effect. When the table is rendered, it is not sorted in any way.
How can I specify an initial sort order for the table? Why is it ignoring the sort criteria on the model?
Thanks.

Log Message:
Dev only. Checking in Flash Builder 4 "Library Projects" for building Flex SDK SWCs in trunk. These projects are easier to import and do not require linked resource variables to be specified.
Note: although the trunk does not build textLayout.swc, there appears to be a legitimate compiler error in FlowGroupElement.as as a cast is missing. I'll follow up with TLF.

Status Update - don't know if this is a bug, design flaw, install problem or my misunderstanding.
I got it to work by first changing my Flex library to 4.5.0 - still didn't work with current
app and update mxml files using "2.6" for their namespace versions. But I did at least
get the popup error number 16815 - indicating an error in the update version namespace.
By leaving my application namespace version at "2.6" and changing the update version to "2.5" ... bingo!
I got my new update installed autiomatically.
Is this how it's supposed to work - or are my runtimes mixed up?
Will this work the same using the Flex 4.5.1 SDK? I'll find out shortly
Hope this helps others.

Best way for building an application main frame

I'm about to program a desktop application.
The main frame will have menus, toolbar, status bar etc.
There will be a lot of interaction between the menus, toolbar buttons and other custom gui components (such as an editor).
My question is which is the best way for building it.
Cramming all the code in one class file is out of the question.
I thought about making my own custom JFrame and add API functions like for it so different GUI elements can be accessed.
Each component which will be manipulated will be in its own class file with the constructor accepting a reference to my custom JFrame object which it is contained in.
Any suggestions on the matter would be of great help since I've never done extensive Swing programming before.
P.S.
The application makes extensive use of RMI.
What considerations should I take into account (except using SwingUtilities.invokeLater()) ?

Hi,
I have replied on this subject somewhere else today but what I do is have one simple entry point where I just instanciate a JFrame.
On that frame I have a main JPanel. On that panel I add new objects like JPanels, tabs etc.
I keep each new panel in a separate source as it is easier when the application grows, and it will. That also means that several programers can work with the same application without interfearing each other.
I hope you understand what I mean the the thing is to split up the code into several sources.
It may not suit everyone but I found this approach to be the best for me.
