Title: Update cube incrementally Vs. recreating entier cube
Post by: Ricky@MDPD on 01 Apr 2009 01:08:02 PM
We recreate our cube on daily bases (the entier cube).  Cognos 8.4

How can I set up my cube to automatically:

1- update incrementally during the week
2- fully recreate on Saturdays!!!

Any feedback is greatly apreciate..Thanks

Use two copies of the model one saved in .PYJ and other .MDL

use the .PYJ for weekdays . In the SQL,  put the timestamp filter (like sysdate) to load only new categories.
*Ensure the Timestamp with Date,Day,Time(HH:MM;SS) so to load all the new data precisely

Write a Batch / Shell script to update the Cube using .PYJ Model and schedule it.

use the .MDL for Full Load.
