Hi everybody, asking this question on behalf of a parter.
They are removing contracts from a cube in a customers environment and carried out the following steps
- Took backup of cubes
- Took backup of tree for contract (ensuring it was well formed)
- Cleared all contracts
- Reloaded the tree (after removing the contracts not required in notepad++
- Reload cubes.
Now this seemed to work ok so not sure if this caused the corruption as Josef loaded in a few contracts ok but a day or so ago the contracts stopped uplifting every year and eventually we tracked this down to a data flow to ‘Temp Other Cost %’ so we investigated and I noted that the cube was not allowing us to read it in a data view so I tried adjusting the cubes sparsity (which should clear it) but the cube retained its size so we cleared it on clearing the size came down to 0 could see it in a data view even though there was no data and then the process worked correctly.
Just wondering if you have come across a cube corruption like this and if is there anything I can run against the DB to check it. (we did start and stop services a few times during the investigation)
Thanks
