Managing Caches (XMLA)

  • Article

You can use the ClearCache command in XML for Analysis (XMLA) to clear the cache of a specified dimension or partition. Clearing the cache forces Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services (SSAS) to rebuild the cache for that object.

Specifying Objects

The Object property of the ClearCache command can contain an object reference only for one of the following objects. An error occurs if an object reference is for an object other than one of following objects:

  • Database
    Clears the cache for all dimensions and partitions contained in the database.
  • Dimension
    Clears the cache for the specified dimension.
  • Cube
    Clears the cache for all partitions contained in the measure groups for the cube.
  • Measure group
    Clears the cache for all partitions contained in the measure group.
  • Partition
    Clears the cache for the specified partition.
