ROLAP Cube on SQL Server 2012 accessing DB2 with named queries

  • Hello,

    as the title suggests i am trying to build a ROLAP Cube on the SQL Server 2012. This Cube is accessing DB2 tables with named queries. So far it is working fine as i managed to deploy the cube and get the data from DB2.

    My problem is that the cube caches the data, so that my count gives old values after deleting a row in DB2.

    I set all dimensions, the cube, partition and aggregation design to rolap. Further more i disabled proactive caching in these objects.

    Do you have any suggestions or ideas on how to make my cube realtime?

  • Have you read the following (the ROLAP section)?

    There are a number of rules that you need to adhere to for ROLAP to work correctly. My guess is it's something to do with SSAS attempting to create indexed views.

    Although, after a little bit of googling I found this comment:

    "Some features require a SQL Server relational database that runs on-premises. Specifically, writeback and ROLAP storage require that the underlying data source is a SQL Server relational database"

    Here:

    It seems to not be supported for DB2.
