Description

Conducts the Process operation on a specific Partition of a specific database having a specific Cube name and a MeasureGroup name with a specific ProcessType value.

Module requirements: version 21+ on PowerShell 5.1; version 21 (recent preview) or version 22+ on PowerShell 7.x.

Examples

Process partition from pipeline

PS SQLSERVER:\SQLAS\MachineName\Instance\Databases\DB1\Cubes\myCube\MeasureGroups\myMeasureGroup\Partitions\Partition1> Get-Item . | Invoke-ProcessPartition -ProcessType ProcessDefault

This command pipes in the identity of the partition to be processed.

Process partition using name

PS SQL SERVER:\SQLAS\MachineName\Instance\Databases\AWTEST\Cubes\Adventure Works\MeasureGroups> Invoke-ProcessPartition �Name "Total_Orders_2003" �MeasureGroupname "Sales Order" �CubeName "Adventure Works" �database "AWTEST" �ProcessType "ProcessFull"

This command processes the partition 'Total_Orders_2003' in the 'Sales Orders' measure group of the 'AWTEST' database.

Process tabular metadata partition

PS SQLSERVER:\SQLAS\MachineName\Instance\Databases\DB1> Invoke-ProcessPartition -PartitionName "myPartition" -TableName "myTable" -Database "DB1"  -RefreshType "Full"

Process tabular metadata partition using enum refresh type

PS SQLSERVER:\SQLAS\MachineName\Instance\Databases\DB1> Invoke-ProcessPartition -PartitionName "myPartition" -TableName "myTable" -Database "DB1"  -RefreshType [Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Tabular.RefreshType]::Full
