ARM and SAS OLAP Server

Using ARM with SAS OLAP Server

A SAS OLAP Server is started as a system process and waits for clients to connect to it. Each client connection establishes a session on the SAS OLAP Server. Each session can then submit MDX queries. Typically, each MDX query is split into one or more regions, which translate calls against the OLAP cube's data, which are called data queries.

ARM writes SAS OLAP Server records to an ARM log using the SAS logging facility. There are two ways to activate ARM logging:

On a running SAS OLAP Server. No server restart is necessary. Logging is valid for the currently running server only, and will not continue when the server is restarted.
By making a change to the logconfig.xml file. Logging will activate automatically, but requires a server restart.

For information, see "Using ARM with SAS OLAP Server" in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
