Monitor Activty on Cube

  • Hello, what is the best way to see any users and/or current/active connections to a SSAS Cube? Or, if not there, to the SSAS server, to be able to see if any users are currently accessing the server or Cubes?

    I'm hoping to find a way to determine, and disconnect if need be, before I deploy SSIS and SSAS packages on a given Cube and kick off a new run. I'll be running at the end of the user time-frame window, just don't want to cut someone off in mid-step.

    Thanks, JPQ

    One way is to use the DMV queries for SSAS, particularly the discover_object_activity and discover_sessions queries. You can find more information, examples in the following:

    Use Dynamic Management Views (DMVs) to Monitor Analysis Services
