Process Cube (Rebuild Cube)


Several enhancements have been made to the OLAP Exchange® Rebuild Cube processing. First, the Rebuild Cube and Update Cube features have been merged into a single feature called Process cube. The Process Cube dialog box now has several new options for how the Cube gets rebuilt.

 

The new features for Cube rebuild reflect many scenarios allowing various optimized configurations for supporting Cube rebuild.
