What do you mean by "Across cubes"? Do you mean can you pass data between cubes and put restrictions on them?

I mean I have cube1 on TM1 Server A and cube2 on Tm1 Server2

Can I write a DB rule between cube1 and cube2?

No. Only if cube1 and cube2 are on the same server.

For communicating between two servers you'd have to use either TI or replication, but you don't have any option which allows live calculations.

I think (and hope) that server to server communication is going to come up the priority list as I heard a rumour of a pricing change which would step away from the per server cost in favour of a pure named user basis. Inter server comms has been a bee in my bonnet for quite a few years. Replication is totally inadequate for most purposes. ODBO kind of works but has many issues and doesn't scale well. It should really be possible to specify a subset or view on a remote server, and manipulate it before reading in. I can dream. In the meantime flat files is the only workable option. Yuk.
