Re: MDX analysis of what you are feeding

Thanks Wim, that's an interesting read, most of the items are pretty obscure. A few items stand out though TI Functions. Interesting that the ASCIIOutput function is not listed, the one thing that has been known for a long while to not be possible. Same for ExecuteCommand. AssignClientPassword - I'm...

Re: MDX analysis of what you are feeding

They were pretty clear when asked that v12 on premise would not re-introduce any of the functionality that v12 containerised was removing. The loss of the Stats cubes has not really been publicised, it's a pretty big deal isn't? How are we supposed to tell we have got our designs right, if dim order...

Hoping this was part of the April fool as well?
Also, in V12, the }Stats cubes are deprecated

Re: Loop Unrolling - Optimal Unrolling Factor?

Hi, The Elpar / ElementParent function will bring back an elements parent, so if you have the levels organised as structure in the dimension then you can use this. Do take care though as if you have multiple consolidation structures in the dimension then you can't guarantee which structure you will ...

Re: Planning Analytics workspace is down

A fellow forumer also pointed out that the licensing conditions have changed as well. If you try to reinstall PAW you're going to need a HCL Mirantis licence, make sure you fully understand this before proceeding. The lack of a licence may block you from installing the product (though I don't know t...

Re: Planning Analytics workspace is down

Hi, Rolling back the install of the patches is not the same is not the same as rolling back the VM to before the patches were installed. The damage will already have been done, you need to have the VM recovered from a back-up. A simple google give you the install instructions for PAW on 2016. https:...

Re: Planning Analytics workspace is down

Not to pile in on this but Win 2016 also does not have mainstream support from Microsoft anymore.... This kind of issue really needs to be raised with IBM support but you may struggle to access this due to the age of your install. If you think drive space is the issue, just add some more and see wha...

Re: PAfE Issue on Win 11

Thanks burnstripe, good shout, I'll follow this up. My understanding is that IE11 is not required anymore following the move to using WebView 2.0 for all the carbon pieces but there could be a miss somewhere. I'd also expect the log-in to the SaaS environment to fail as well if it was as simple as I...

Re: PAfE Issue on Win 11

Hi MaranC,
Yes I'm expecting them to say the combination of PAfE and PAW is out of range of their conformance statements, hence coming here for a solution.

Will keep the thread updated as and when I hear something.

Re: PAfE Issue on Win 11

Thanks burnstripe sensible suggestion but we're in the awkward situation of migrating to IBM Cloud and need to have both Cloud and on Prem available for parallel run. Would prefer not to upgrade on prem PAW if possible as then we would have to UAT that just to get through the parallel run.

Re: ELPAR in Rule

For something as slow changing as this I would populate with a TI and hang the script for it off whatever TI is looking after updates to the Cost Centre dimension. This way there is no need for SecurityRefresh to get rule changes reflected in the security model, once you have to kick the system to g...

If so I don't think it is possible using VBA.

Re: Can you use ConsolidatedCountUnique with criteria

Hi, I'd be very careful about using the Consolidate.... family of functions. They do some strange things to the calculation engine including (I believe / been told) turn off the sparse data calculation methods (skipcheck / feeders) "underneath" them. They can lead to significant RAM growth...

Hi, It's Friday and I'm about to log so I'll be brief. Problem 1. " There is a process that deletes the ORGs and then repopulates the ORGs to bring in new orgs if there are any" Check if this is doing a DimensionDeleteAllElements, if so you should flatten the structure instead (i.e. remove...

Re: Tm1 Instance starting up failure

Probably best to show the lines it is stopping at. My best guess is that you have persistent feeders on and this is enabling fast start-up. Sometimes it will decide to rebuild the feeders which can take a v long time and you will see the log pause on these lines for long periods. Key point is if the...
