Dimensions usually contain hierarchies of related members grouped within them. For example, a Year dimension often includes members for each time period, such as quarters and months Standard dimension + dimension that is not an attribute dimension Attribute dimension + Alype of dimension that enables analysis based on the atributes or qualities of dimension A.

Creates temporary files thal are copies of the ind, pag, ol, osm, and ct fies. Each ‘emporary file substitutes ether N or U for the last character ofthe fil extension, so the temporary file names are inn, essxxuxinn, essxxexx pan, dbname.otn, dbname.esn, and dbname teu Reads the blocks from the database files copiod in stop 1, restructures the blocks in memory, {and then stores them in the new temporary files. This step takes the most time Removes the database files copied in step 1, Including nd, .pag, ol osm, and tet files, |. Renames the temporary files to the correct file names: Ind, pag, ot, .esm, and tot Eau Essbase Restructure ‘Sparse Restructures When Essbase does a sparse restructure (restructures just the index), it uses the following files: 1 esso000 ind # dbname.ot! ‘¢ dbname.esm To perform a sparse restructure, Essbase does the following 1. Renames the dbame.esm file to dbname.esr 2. Renames the ess1000x nd files to essxoon.inm. 3. Creates new index files (2880000 ind) to store index information that Is changed bythe restructuring operation. 4, Removes dbname.esr and essxvox.inm created in 1.Eee Essbase Restructure Implicit Restructures; Essbase initiates an impli plicit restructure of the database fles after an outline is changed using Editor or Dimension Build, type of changes made tothe outing» oo rostutue tat Is performed depends on the Dense restructure: Ma i restructures the blocks embet of@ dense dimension is moved, deleted, or added, Essbase locks eee = a the data files and creates new data files.

Thus, the 100-10 member of the Product dimension is associated with the Grape member of the Flavor attribute dimension.
