Hi Guys,

I want to know how to Schedule SSAS Cube, I have tried below steps but got stucked at step no 6

Steps to Create SSIS And Schedule It...

1. Create a New Integration Service Project. In the control flow tab, add a connection manager for analysis Services database and refer the instance of analysis service database in which cube exist.

2. From the Control Flow tool bar tab, find the ‘Analysis Services Processing Task’ and drag and drop to the control flow panel.

3. Edit this task and add the ‘cubes’ which we want to process in the object list option

4. Build the project and In the file menu, select ‘Save…..as’ and save the package to Analysis Services Database Server

5. Connect the Database Engine using Management Studio

6. Go to SQL Server Agent and Right Click on the Jobs. Add a new Job and set the Job Type as ‘integration Service’.

7. And Select the locally saved SSIS Package and set the period option as per your requirement

8. That’s it. Now the cubes will be processed at the scheduled intervals.

if anyone knows how to do this or any other ways to do this let me know.

Thanks..

why you got stuck at step 6? what happened when you created job? before that, did you try manually running package and see if it processed cube successfully?

yaa, Package has been running sucessfully in Visual Studio 2005 Client as well as in Sql server BIDS 2005 But when I reached at steps 6, i got stucked while creating "New Job" in SQL Server Agent. In the new job page window I found options like Generals, Steps, Schedule, Alerts, Notifications and Agents from where mine actual problems get started.

those are the properties of job. do you mean you dont know how to set them? or is it that you're facing some issue trying to set values for properties?

there's no concept of records in SSAS db. it should be dimensions,measure groups and partitions. Have you added logging for SSAS processing?
