There is a question on how to rename an Analysis Services 2005 cube since you cannot do that within SSMS (you can rename a database but you cannot a cube). If you want to rename a cube prior to its deployment, you can alter it through XMLA. To do this:
As you can see from above, the <Name> node can be changed so that while the ID for this cube is still "blah", now your name can be "Foo". But if you want to change the name of your cube after its already been deployed, there are an additional number of steps that will need to be performed. |
