Physical Storage and Metadata Considerations

The physical files that compose SAS OLAP cubes are contained within two subfolders:

The cube path folder name matches the cube name, under the folder defined by the PATH= option. The aggregation racks (tables) are located in the cube folder. The remaining internal cube files are placed in a generation folder. Each generation will have a new generation folder, with subsequent names (gen0001, gen0002, gen0003, and so on). These folders will be created under the existing cube folder.
