Rejcted records cube build log.

Question

I am on 11.1.0.7 db with 11.1.0.7B AWM and loading the dimensions and cube. The olapsys.xml_load_log table is not populated with the build log. I can query cube_build_log but xml_load_log give me better information(rejected/processed records). I know there is a bug for this issue on 11.1.
Can I somehow know the rejected records information other than doing a minus between fact and dimensions? Any workaroud for this?
Thanks,

Answer 1

With 11gr2 we have the following logs which will give all the information including rejected dimensions without having to do a minus from fact table.
Maintenance Logs
The first time you load data into a cube or dimension using Analytic Workspace Manager, it creates several logs. These logs are stored in tables in the same schema as the analytic workspace:
•     Cube Build Log: Contains information about what happened during a build. Use this log to determine whether the build produced the results you were expecting, and if not, why not. The log is continually updated whenever a cube or dimension is refreshed, whether by Analytic Workspace Manager, the database materialized view refresh subsystem, or a PL/SQL procedure. You can query the log at any time to evaluate the progress of the build and to estimate the time to completion. The default table name is CUBE_BUILD_LOG.
•     Cube Dimension Compile Log: Contains errors that occur during the validation of the dimension hierarchies when OLAP is aggregating a cube. The default table name is CUBE_DIMENSION_COMPILE.
•     Cube Operations Log: Contains messages and debugging information for all OLAP engine events. The default table name is CUBE_OPERATIONS_LOG.
•     Cube Rejected Records Log: Identifies any records that were rejected because they did not meet the expected format. The default table name is CUBE_DIMENSION_COMPILE.
You can also run the $ORACLE_HOME/olap/admin/utlolaplog.sql script to create the build log with some useful views.
