  • 1.  Data Lineage with Dynamic Cube

    Posted 12/14/19 03:57 PM
    Hi,

    Should Data Lineage still work with Dynamic Cubes?

    When I want to show the Data Lineage, I am getting a error within our environment (11.1.4)

    Error: MSR-LIN-0007 ->  Lineage is not available for Dynamic Cubes

    Found some post on the IBM web there was a fix for this in Cognos 10.

    The only fix that I'm aware of is this one.

    https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1PI33731

    The fix was to remove the word 'currently'.

    I think before that there would be an error when you invoked lineage in a  dynamic cube.

    Hi Ian,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Both posts are talking about C10 where the solution is to upgrade.
    Right now we are on R 11.1.4 so it should be solved ? ;-)

    But is this an issue at our environment, or is Data Lineage not available with C11 and Dynamic Cubes ?

    Kind Regards,

    They say upgrade to get the fixes for the defects.  They do not say nor imply that at any point that there would be implementation of support of lineage for dynamic cubes.  The removal of the word 'currently' from the error message would reënforce that.  

    I am not a OM so I can not give you any guidance on the matter.  I can point out that the fix for the message took place just under 5 years ago.

    This is a RFE for the support of lineage for dynamic cubes.

    Hi Ian,

    Thanks again for your reply.

    Reason for my post / question was to know if there is anyone out there who has build a Dynamic Cube and has Data Lineage available, or 
    someone who knows: No Data Lineage is not available in combination with Dynamic Cubes.

    I know, the PI33731 post doesn't say Data Lineage should work, but the word "currently" imply to me the LAB is working on a solution ;-).
    And this post is from 4 year ago, so there could be a solution build in.

    sorry for asking, but what is an OM ?

    Kind Regards,

    Yes, that's why 'currently' was taken out.

    OM= offering manager a.k.a. product manager.  They are responsible for various products. They tend to be presentable and have speaking styles which would serve them well if they ever appeared on Just a minute.
