connectivity error while registering a new group
error message
"You must upgrade your SQL Enterprise Manager and SQL DMO (SQL-OLE) to SQL server (SQL DMO) to connect to server."
Can any one please guide me how to overcome this proble.
thanx regardsLook at Knowledge Base Article:
HOW TO: Administer Different Versions of SQL Server by Using SQL Server Enterprise Manager (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q225/5/45.asp&NoWebContent=1)sqlsql

Connections
a 7.0 server. They claim that they cannot kill certain
connections, i.e. they typed in kill and nothing
happened. I have seen that happen with web-based
connection pooling apps but not with a regular app that
they're working with.
Anyway, what I wanted to ask is: is the kill command the
only way to kill a connection besides the winner-take-all
methods of taking the database offline or stopping and
restarting services? Just wondering if there's some magic
bullet that I hadn't heard of.
Kill can only be used to terminate user processes (typically spid>50) that
is not executing an extended procedure. Perhaps, that's what they're seeing.

No magic bullets here. Wait for a possible rollback to complete, if you feel certain you have waited
long enough, recycling the SQL Server is the way to go.

connection to cluster admin
up the cluster by taking too much offline in an attempt to move it. now I
don't have access to the cluster as the cluster ip, network name are
offline.
Can I tweak the registry somehow to regain access to it?
Stupid Stupid error.
Start Cluster Admin, but instead of using the cluster name, open it with a
period. Then start the resources.
Cheers,

Connection Timeout when processing cube
I am getting a connection timeout error when processing a cube with measure group containing 4mil rows or so. It errors after 5 mins and after about 3mil rows have been read so it's probably not the ExternalCommandTimeout issue. The Fact table for the measure group is created using a named query. I would appreciate any insight into why the error is thrown after 5 mins. Here's part of the error:

Dont think this has anything to do with ExternalCommandTimeout.
Try processing your cube using SQL Management Studio.
For that first deploy your project and in the project's properties in the deployment tab select Processing option = "Do Not Process".
Then open a SQL Management studio, connect to Analysis Services, navigate to your cube and try to process it. See if you get any errors.

Take a look at the msmdsrv.log located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\Log folder.
Do you see there any messages around time you trying to process your cube.
If you havent yet, install SP1 of SQL Server and see if the same behavior persists.
