TimeXtender UI is intermittently slow

Hello there, we’ve been experiencing intermittent slowness in the TimeXtender UI within the past few weeks.  Even doing simple things like right clicking on a execution package to view the logs, trying to see the status of an ODX transfer job, etc. will sometimes cause the UI to feel like it’s just not responding (no lotus status UI) for 30 seconds to minutes.This isn’t something that happens all the time and we haven't been able to nail down a root cause.  Our VM where the UI is running is rarely over 30% CPU usage and we usually have over 80% memory free.  Same goes for the VM that the ODX is running on.  How do you even begin to troubleshoot this when the UI is slow to respond?  The TimeXtender UI is on version 20.10.38.64.  The TimeXtender ODX server is on version 20.10.37Thanks!

Transfer TimeXtender to another Server

Dear Community, I have a few questions regarding transferring to another internal server and if you could help me with any of these questions help is appreciated.We have currently two servers running on SQL Server 2016, one server has the DEV and ACC environments and the second server has our PROD Environment (TimeXtender 20.10.39.64).The environments were installed by a supplier but their external employee left, so we want to try and install this on our own (with snapshots/backups in case something goes wrong).We want to try and move the DEV/ACC environment to a new server which has the same TimeXtender version but SQL Server 2019. For this move I have 3 questions:Can I just export and import the project from old server to my new server and load the data again into a new SQL database? How can I set up my environments in such a way that my DEV → ACC → PROD traject isn’t changed. I could not find those settings and had trouble finding them on the legacy page. As the DEV/ACC environments

TimeXtender Project Load Times

Good afternoon, When I transfer my project from our DEV to PROD environment, it takes over 25 minutes. I also have the same problem when opening the project from PROD to deploy and execute changes.  Is there anything I can do in order to make these times more manageable? Thanks, Chuck

working with multiple project

Hi , our DH setup consists of multi-layered datawarehouse whereas BI client (tableau ) only interfaces the upper tier: MDW DWH.Having semantic layer for each dashboards (we have quite a few), we would like to move out of the single core TX project with multiple semantic layers to a project for each dashboard (semantic layer). By doing so, we can make sure that each developer works on his own project without "stepping on each other toes" (I'm aware of collabaration features of TX) and keeping our core project unharmed. So, the challenge is how to reuse objects created in the core project (preferably VIEW to reduce space/redundencies) in entire new project (same server/database)My approach was creating a new project, add MDW datawarehouse and then utilize External SQL Connection to connect to the same DWH (transfer type connection). I've also created a seperate database schema with valid behaivor. The problem we ran in was that designated table was the same as similar table in the daatab

ODX Server Notifications on Critical Errors

I am unable to set up my notifications. I get the following error message: I already tried different email addresses (gmail, outlook, hotmail) with different ports. I also enabled the option within my mail accounts to allow external programs to make a connection. But it still isn't working. Is this a know issue or am I doing something wrong?

Legacy Work Items

Hi all,  Our project has work items that have been left by several folks who have since left the company.  Their accounts no longer exist, so we can't log in as their old users and remove them.  Is it possible to remove these work items some other way?

Deployment Error - There is already an object named...

I recently had a project get corrupted, and I had to revert back to a prior version.  When I did this, it appears as though some aspect of the metadata got scrambled.  When I open the project, all of the tables and other objects show up.  But when I go to deploy any table, regardless of red/black state, the database throws an error "There is already an object named <mytable> in the database."  It is as though TX is sending a CREATE statement instead of an ALTER.  I can manually delete the table(s) and related function to make this error go away for my one table, but I have hundreds of tables, some of which have many months of history.   All of my tables show up in the treeview controls, however when I use the SQL Database Cleanup Tool, none are listed in "Current Project Objects".  They are all listed in "Unknown Project".  Is there any way to recover from this without having to drop all tables and deploy/execute?

SQL 2016: worth the upgrade?

Hello fellow TimeXtender users, We were wondering: is it worth upgrading from SQL 2014 to 2016 in the scenario where we use TX traditionally: stage - dw - cubes. Has anyone done it and have you seen performance improvements? Thanks! Wim CALM - Co
