Setup tables ,load failed . Please help !!!

Question

Hi, I have newly created a setup for sd infocube and have completed 5 delta loads from BI. But now my 6th delta load fails, and the data in my cube is lost. I have a queued delta setup .So now
1) delete the init flag.
2) delete all the setup table data with LBWG.
3) FILL the setup tables again OLI7BW newly.
4) Now if i do a full upload so will i get all my previous data ( all data till my 5th delta load)
5) by doing a full upload will my 6th delta load also be included in the setup tables, since im refilling the setup  tables.
What should I do if its an ODS , is it the same case for ODS also ?

Hi.......
Are u sure data is lost.......hav u repeated the failed load.........look if u delete the failed request from the target after making the QM status forcefully red in the IP Monitor>> Status tab..........then the init pointer will set back........after that if u repeat the load...........then the system will ask u for Repeat delta...........means that it will pick all the missed records.........that were not loaded due to the failed load........
Now if u hav deleted the failed load without making the QM status red..........but have'nt repeated the load.........then nothing to worry about..............just make the QM status forcefully red........then repeat the load..............system will ask u for repeat delta................but if u hav deleted the request without making the QM status red......and also hav repeated the load..............then ur delta mechanism will get corrupted and data will be lost.........
In that case......
1)) delete the init flag.
2) delete all the setup table data with LBWG.
3) FILL the setup tables again OLI7BW newly........with selection...........to get the lost records....
4) After that either do full upload......followed by init without data transfer.................or simply do init with data transfer........it will pick records.as well as set the init pointer...........in that case........no need to do full upload......
In case of ODS............never do full upload.........bcoz an ODS does'nt support full upload and delta upload parrallely.......then ur ODS activation will fail............in this case instead of full upload..........u hav to do full repair........same thing.........just go to IP scheduler >> Scheduler tab >> Repair full request>>check the box.............then go ahead.......as u do in case of full upload...........schedule the load..................if u do full upload....then again u hav to convert the full upload request to full repair request....using the program :RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG .......
Hope this helps......
