Preparing the sample aggregate storage application for use

To prepare the sample aggregate storage application for use, you need to load data and then precalculate and store aggregations for the database.

To load data, use the following data file and rules file that are installed in the database directory on the Analytic Server:

ARBORPATH\app\ASOsamp\Sample\dataload.txt 
ARBORPATH\app\ASOsamp\Sample\dataload.rul 

For instructions on loading data to aggregate storage databases, see Administration Services online help.

After the data load is complete, precalculate aggregations on the database to improve retrieval times. To precalculate aggregations, use Aggregation Design Wizard in Administration Services or use the MaxL execute aggregate process statement. For more information, see the Administration Services online help or the MaxL section of the Analytic Services Technical Reference.
