Large Dimension Build Cause Large Memory Usage

Hello, I'm currently in the process of creating a pretty large dimension (approx 1.9 million elements). I'm sourcing the dimension from an Oracle database (using an Oracle 11g 32 bit client). The behavoir occuring is a larger than normal (in my opinion) swell in memory as the recordset iterated over...

Re: Parallel Interaction in 10.1

Hi Ardi, Have you considered that maybe your processes are both updating a shared control cube? I once tried to write some processes that would run in parallel and came into locking issue. The issue ended up being that I was disabling cube logging (in different cubes) in both processes. Because both...

Directory Locations Getting "Confused"

Hello, We've encountered an issue and are experiencing some strange behavior with how Tm1 looks to be resolving directories on the server. Let me provide some details: This particular situation appears to arise when we perform a SaveDataAll while having a large amount of users in the system/trying t...

Re: Long server load time (not feeders?)

I agree, I would think it's probably the transaction log being a decent size and getting reloaded at startup.

Intermittent TM1 Login Ability with C10/CAM Security

Hello, We've recently experienced some very strange intermittant login ability when using Cognos 10/CAM Security to loging into TM1 9.5.2. Basically, sometimes we are able to login without issue (using Perspective in Citrix or RDP onto the server) as well as TM1Web (accessed through Tm1Web login pag...

Re: Erratic DOS calls

Hi, I too have faced a similiar issue as well (after months of running without issue). Additionally, while this affects batch file execution I've come to find it also(this being an educated guess) has to do with how TM1 (and/or the server) is resolving directories. What also seems weird it that once...

Re: Asynchronous processing

Hi AmbPin, In looking at your post I have one suggestion regarding the way you are approaching your asychronus processing. Now, I'm on 9.5.1 and this very well may no longer be an issue in 9.5.2 however I thought it was worth mentioning. Specifically, I'm refereing this section in your Data tab: nIn...

We've been running in a high volume production environment for about a year now. This is the first time we've experienced th...

Hello, We recently had some odd behavoir during a sync between two instances. Basically, a sync process ran to move 4 records and only 3 came across. We are on 9.5.1 and opened a ticket with IBM about it as well. I was just curious to see if anyone else had experienced something similiar. Here are t...

Re: Disconnect users before TI processes running

Hi, Have you had success using the EnableBulkLoad call? I'm currently using 9.5.1 and if I recall correctly if it's executed while a view is running or a chore is running it ended up hanging our instance. I certainly didn't test it very throughly and it was quite some time ago, so I could very well ...

Re: Correlation between "Commit" times and the Transaction L

Tomok, I don't believe you correct with regard to the "Commit" and WRITES and READS. We've been watching TM1Top closely for months and while the "Commits" occur at the conclusion of a WRITE, they also most certainly occur at the end of a READ query. I think Duncan P's hypothesis ...

Correlation between "Commit" times and the Transaction Log

Hello, As I would imagine many of you know, when a query is completing referencing cells previously not cached, TM1 "commits" these cells at the conclusion of the query (what is displayed if you are watching TM1Top). During which TM1 becomes single threaded, or in other words, no one can d...
