CALCNOTICE

Parameters

CALCNOTICE sets the HIGH, DEFAULT, and LOW values for the SET NOTICE calculation command.

The SET NOTICE calculation command monitors the progress of your calculation, displaying completion notices during the calculation.

Syntax

CALCNOTICEHIGH | CALCNOTICEDEFAULT | CALCNOTICELOW n

where HIGH, DEFAULT, and LOW are levels.

HIGHMaximum number of completion notices that a user can choose to display.
DEFAULTDefault number of completion notices.
LOWMinimum number of completion notices that a user can choose to display.
nInteger value for each level. It represents the number of notices to be displayed at set intervals during the calculation.

Description

CALCNOTICE defines the values for each of the three levels of the SET NOTICE calculation command.

SET NOTICE HIGH | DEFAULT | LOW provides completion notices during a calculation. The frequency and number of completion notices depends on the level specified.

The interval between notices is approximate. Hyperion Essbase measures the interval by taking the number of data blocks already calculated as a percentage of the total number of possible data blocks in your database.

For partial calculations and calculations with multiple passes through your database, the interval between completion notices is approximate.

Example

If you use the following settings in the ESSBASE.CFG file:

CALCNOTICEHIGH 50
CALCNOTICEDEFAULT 20
CALCNOTICELOW 5
then SET NOTICE commands in a script produce the following results:

SET NOTICE HIGH;
displays 50 completion notices at 2% intervals.

SET NOTICE DEFAULT;
displays 20 completion notices at 5% intervals.

SET NOTICE LOW;
displays 5 completion notices at 20% intervals.

In ESSBASE.CFG, a parameter is not followed by a semicolon; in a script, a parameter must be followed by a semicolon.
