Full Optimization and rearrangement of dimensions
In BPC, there are times when Full optimize u2018mayu2019 create a new cube if rearrangements of dimensions gives more optimal performance. Also, upon transport, the technical name u2018mayu2019 be different for the same reason.
My questions - how and when does BPC system realize to rearrange dimensions? Is it during every full optimize?
I hope data does not get affected, but what gets affected?
In basic terms, what is "rearrangement of dimensions"?
Also, when should we do full optimize?
When we transport, does that change the technical name?
Thanks.

Hi Anand -
Part two...
This process being understood, on your specific questions:
How and when does BPC system realize to rearrange dimensions? The decision to rearrange dimensions is based upon an analysis of transactional data and sizing of the underlying SID tables supporting that data
Is it during every full optimize? Not necessarily.
I hope data does not get affected, but what gets affected?
Data is retained, but if the cube is reorganized then the technical name of the cube supporting the BPC application may change during the process.
In basic terms, what is "rearrangement of dimensions"?
Rearrangement of dimensions is the process where the BW characteristics are reassigned to different BW dimensions to promote an optimal data model.
Also, when should we do full optimize?
If you suspect that your performance has degraded due to changes in your transactional data storage patterns, you may need to update your current BW data model to achieve the best performance from your application.
When we transport, does that change the technical name?
There is guarantee that the same technical name will exist in the target system, so the answer is maybe not. Please rview the folowing blog for more details on name retention after transport:

Re: Full Optimize and Lite Optimize Disabled
Hi,
We have an BPC App.
What we need now is that for a particular group of users to have no access to run Full Optimize or Lite Optimize rights to trigger it.
Please can any one advice how to disable this functionality or un authorize this for particular set of users so that they cannot execute any optimization.
Regards.Hi,
Follow below steps:
1. Create a Team and assign users those should have an access for Full and light optimization
2. Goto Manage data>Maintain data management>Manage Packages
-->Select the team which you created in step 1
-->Select add package
--> Choosee process chain as /CPMB/LIGHT_OPTIMIZE
--> Give package name and description
--> Select Taks type as User Package
-->Click Save
3. Create one more package for Full Optimization as expalined in step 2 under same team
Now users who are related to this new team can able to run both Full and light optimizations provided Execute task assigned under task profile.
By following above steps you can assign many package to team and can modify team access from Manage Team user package access if you need.
Hope it helps..

The Full Optimization & Lite Optimization Data Manager packages are failing
Hi,
The Full Optimization and Lite Optimization Data Manager packages are failing with the following message "An Error occured while querying for the webfolders path".
Can anyone had similar issue earlier, please let me know how can we rectify the issue.
Thanks,
Vamshi KrishnaHi,
Does the Full Optimize work from the Administration Console directly?
If it's the case, delete the scheduled package for Full Optimize every night (in both eData -> Package Schedule Status and in the Scheduled Tasks on your server Control Panel -> Scheduled Tasks), and then try to reschedule it from scratch.
If it's not solving your problem, I would check if there are some "wrong" records into the FACT and FAC2 tables.
After that, I would also check if the tblAppOptimize is having other values than 0. For all applications, you should have a 0 there.
Hope this will help you..
Best Regards,

Full optimize with Compress DB throws error
Hi,
We are using SAP BPC 7.0 MS version... We have an SSIS package scheduled every morning for a Full Optimize with Compress DB. For the past few days this package had been failing after running for 2 hours, with the following error message :
[Error][OSoft.Services.Application.OptimizeManage.OptimizeManageCtrl]
When we tried doing a Full optimize without compress DB or Index defragmentation from the Admin Console, it completes successfully.
But when we try doing a Full Optimize with Compress database checked, it runs for about 2 hours and throws the following error :
An error has occurred during processing
Error Message : Thread was being aborted
After the above process it leaves all the records in the fact table with source column 1.
Can anyone please share your ideas on this issue if you have faced this before and a way to fix this.
We do not have bad or invalid records in the fact table.Hi,
Please recheck if you have any calculated members or invalid dimension members.
Calculated members will create such problems.
Please check you have enough free disk space on your server which has Database and Analysis Services.
Please make sure you have enabled 3GB support in Everest Update component, if you have more than 4GB RAM in your Application server.
Please check if you have setup the Analysis Server settings with a minimum recommended value for the
Threadpool \ Query \ MaxThreads parameter.
The recommended value is higher of 10 or (number of Analysis Services Databases + twice the number of processor cores).
If you have 4 dual core processors in your Analysis Services server (8 cores) and 5 Analysis Services DB, then you must set the value as 5+(2*8)=21.
The source column will be updated as zero when the full optimization is complete. It remains as 1 since your full optimization is not completed.
Since it says thread is being aborted, I believe the Analysis Services server settings change might resolve your issue.

Full Optimize - Space needed in BW/Oracle
Hi.
This is kind of a SAP basis question, I think. We are doing full optimization, which eventually ends in an ABAP dump indicating that the Oracle database is running out of table space.
We have had similar problems before, and just had the Oracle DBA extend the table space.
It is obvious that Full Optimization need to do a lot of work in restructuring and recreating the application set. The question now is how much table space is needed to do a full optimize? Is it possible to estimate?
The DBA doesn't want to set AutoExtend on the database table space. Does anyone know best practice on this matter of subject?
We are running SAP BPC 7.5 SP07.
Kind regards
Mogens SmerdelI cant give a specific answer as i am not a basis expert but can help you understand the full optimize process.From a technical point of view,the cube is restructured and the dimension combinations are reviewed based on the fact table ratios.
So this process creates some temporary tables and then finally a new cube is created .
You might have to look at the current cube fact tables and no of dimensions (tables) and make an estimate of the size and structure .

Full Optimize problem - BPC 10.1 Classic on HANA
Hi,
I try to execute a Full Optimize, but it always ends with a warning and starts the Light Optimize instead.
The model has 18 dimensions and a very large dimension is in the so-called "Last dimension". I'd expect the Full Optimize to reorganise the model.
ENABLE_FIXED_CUBENAME is not active/set.
Any ideas what is causing this or how to enforce the full optimize to be performed?
Best regards,
ChristophHi Chrisoph,
Do you know the full implication after running a full optimize? changing of cube names and so on?
You can ENABLE_FIXED_CUBENAME parameter by looking at sap note 1689814
once you fixed the cube name you can only run lite optimize.

Error message for full optimization
Dear all,
I received the following error message when i tried to run a full optimization. Does anyone know the following error message mean?
"Error message:There is already an object named 'CONSTTBLFACTBUDGET_ALLOCATION' in the database.
Could not create constraint."
And where can i see the log for optimization?
Thanks and regards,
Lip CheanHi,
Please refer to the Note 1101768.
This error can occur if there is more than one constraint with the same name located in the same SQL database.
For example, if you backup the tblFactFinance table by exporting a copy of the table as tblFactFinanceBackup within the same SQL database and then later you rename the tblFactFinance in use as tblFactFinance_Old and the restore the tblFactFinanceBackup as tblFactFinance, the additional constraint of tblFactFinance_Old will cause this issue.
To resolve, using the example above, delete the additional constraint by going to START->PROGRAMS->Microsoft SQL Server->SQL Query Analyzer ->Connect to the SQL Server at issue->Open the Object Browser->expand the SQL database at issue->User tables->dbo.tblFactFinance_old->Constraints->select the fxdbo.tblFactFinance constraint and delete it.
After the constraint is deleted then the application can be saved without this error.
Hope this helps. -
SAP BPC 7.5 NW SP09 - full optimize never ends. Job can not be stopped
Hi experts,
we sent a full optimize process in order to compress an application but it never finished.
I noticed that through BW transaction RSPC the process chain: Full optimization stops in "Collapse box" step and become red.
so the cube were locked and can not be used. we checked through in BW TE SM50 that process is in "Running status"
I tried to stop it through BW TE SM37 but can not be done due its status.
Please any idea how to stopped it and how solved full optimization issue?
thanksTry cancelling it from SM50 (with core or without core). Never run Full Optimization for compression, run Light Optimization if you need to compress a cube.

Full Optimize Error - OutOfMemmory in SAP BPC
Hello
Has anyone come across the following error when running a full Optimize from SAP BPC Administration.
Error Message: Exception of type system OutOfMemoryException was thrown.
I've raised a support call but would appreciate any help on knowing why this happens and how I can resolve it.
Many thanks
HinaHello Appu,
Do you have something in default script logic? Revise it in the admin consol Default.LGF inside the application and scripts logic, and delete the code include. Always if you don't need to use it.
By defect SAP BPC include some code there and you must delete it and save the changes.

In IPhoto 11 I have made an album and rearrange the photosin the order I require them. When export the album to allow me to burn them todisk to be viewed in Windows they do not maintain the same order. What am I doingwrong?
When you sort the Album in iphoto are you sorting manually? Or by date of the photos?
When you sort in the Finder how are are you sorting?
Here's one way to do what you're trying to do:
Create your Album and sort the pics as you want them. Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the Finder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.

Hi
Is there a time limit for full optimize when running it from BPC Admin?
I have tried to do a full optimize two times and it ends after 1 hour both times with the error messege:
"Thread was being aborted"
Do any one know what the problem can be and if there are a time limit for 1 hour how can I walk around this time limit?
Regards
FredrikHi,
this is due to the timeout settings in ASP.net file web.config.we can change this setting as below.
In order to fix this issue, you need to modify the file "web.config" in the
folder \BPC\websrvr\web of the Web Server. Please, inside this file, locate
the following line:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="102400" executionTimeout="3600" />
and change the executionTimeout to 36000.
This means that when a process takes longer than 3600 seconds = 1 hour to
complete, the execution meets a timeout; by increasing the
"executionTimeout" parameter to 36000 = 10 hours the error disappears.
Remember that you need to run an "IISRESET" command on the web server after
doing this change.

SQL index of facttable disappears after full optimize + compress db
Hello all,
I have a customer that is using Outlooksoft 4.2sp3 for more then a year now. Every weekend a full optimize + compress database is running.
Since 4 weeks, the SQL index of the fact table is disappeared after a full optimize+compress. They use a custom index and have about 95.000.000 records in the facttable.
Does anyone have a clue why this index is deleted and perhaps a solution?
Kind Regards,
Alwin Berkhout
Edited by: Alwin Berkhout on Apr 20, 2008 9:50 PMJoost, Sorin,
I have created server extensions for the database that has these problems. Now for the first time since 5 weeks, after the optimize, the indexes are still there (or automatically recreated).
Thanks for the tips.
Strange thing though: why didn't I had this problem before?
