Author Dynamic Dimension Security not applied when running DTS package as a job
vulcano

2005-09-23, 7:23 am


I implemented the dynamic dimension security using the virtual cube
approach( cube A + security cube B combined in virtual cube C)
I've made a DTS package with 2 Analysis Services Processing Task:
- one task makes an incremental update of the dimension with the
dynamic security
- the other one process the virtual cube

The system runs with MS SQL SERVER 2000 (SP4) and MS Analysis
Services 2000 (SP4).

If I run the DTS package and then try to connect to the virtual cube
with MS Excel, works fine.

If I run a job that was created from the DTS package and try to
connect to the virtual cube with MS Excel, it doesn't work; the dynamic
dimension security is not applied.

I want to be able to run a job that applies the dynamic security. Can
anybody help me?

If you want more detail information please let me know.

Are you saying that when the DTS package is launched from a scheduled
job that it does not work?

Check the SQL Agent logs - are you sure the job ran and completed?

Check that the account that the SQL Agent is running under is a part of
the OLAP Administrators group - otherwise it will not have permission to
do any OLAP processing. (when you run the DTS package manually it is
running under your user account - when you run it as a job it runs under
the SQL Agent's user account)
