User request is completed. (Ran out of memory)

Unable to Run/Edit particular MicroStrategy reports ue to the following error:

User request is completed. (Ran out of memory)

User request is completed.
(Ran out of memory)




The above issue appeared in MSTR Web Universal version 10.5

We tried the below options without any luck:
1. i-server restart
2. Web server restart
3. clear document cache/dataset cache
4. Web server cache clear as below:



The correct option is to increase the contract memory settings:

Using the Memory Contract Manager

The MCM settings are in the Intelligence Server Configuration Editor, in the Governing Rules: Default: Memory Settings category.
The Enable single memory allocation governing option lets you specify how much memory can be reserved for a single Intelligence Server operation at a time. When this option is enabled, each memory request is compared to the Maximum single allocation size (MBytes) setting. If the request exceeds this limit, the request is denied. For example, if the allocation limit is set to 100 MB and a request is made for 120 MB, the request is denied, but a request for 90 MB is allowed.

N-Level deep nested prompts in MicroStrategy

N-Level deep nested prompts in MicroStrategy Prompt-in-prompt is a feature in which the answer to one prompt is used to define another prompt. This feature is only implemented for element list prompts. The following procedure describes how to achieve this: Create the highest level filter. This is a filter which contains a prompt on an attribute element list. Create a filter on the attribute "Year." Click "prompt on attribute element list" and click "Next" through the rest of the screens to accept the default values. Do not set any additional conditions. Save the filter as "YEAR FILTER:"   From this level on, each filter will contain both a prompt on an element list and will have its element list filtered by the filter created one level above it. There is no limit to the number of such filters that can be layered. Create a filter on attribute "Quarter" and click "Prompt." Select "Use a filter to reduce the nu...

Split Hierarchy with M-M(many to many) relationships in Microstrategy:

Split Hierarchy with M-M(many to many) relationships in Microstrategy: Split Hierarchy with M-M relationships: Explanation A split hierarchy is one - that at the lowest level - has more than one child. The schema looks like the following diagram. Problem Reports that contain B or C will ignore filters on the other . Recommendation MicroStrategy recommends to have only one child at the lowest level. Workaround / Solution Make B and C parents of a new compound attribute using both columns as its ID with A B and C as its parents.

"System Prompt" and its uses in MicroStrategy

System Prompt and its uses in MicroStrategy WHAT IS A "SYSTEM PROMPT"? "System Prompt" is a system object that was introduced back in version 8.0.0. The object is named as "User Login" and is implemented as a prompt object. The object can be found under Public Objects > Prompts > System prompts, as shown below: Unlike ordinary prompt objects, system prompts don't require any answers from the user. When a report containing a system prompt runs, the prompt is answered automatically with the login of the user who runs the report. On the other hand, like other prompt objects, answers to system prompts are used to match caches. Therefore, users don't share caches for reports that contain system prompts. For details on how caches are matched, refer to the following MicroStrategy Knowledge Base document: KB5300-7X0-0147 - How are caches matched in MicroStrategy Intelligence Server 7.x? WHEN ARE SYSTEM PROMPTS USED?    System pr...

Partition Key Selection guidelines in MicroStrategy

Partition Key Selection guidelines MicroStrategy The partition attribute is typically dictated by specific application needs. Below are some general guidelines for identifying a good partition attribute. Some of the largest fact tables in the application are typically good candidates for partitioning and thus influence the choice of the partition attribute.  Data should be partitioned in such a way that it allows for the most number of partitions to be involved in any question that is asked of the application. Attributes that are frequently used for filtering or selections do not make for good partition attributes. The partition attribute should allow for near uniform distribution of data across the partitions, so that the workload on each partition is evenly distributed. To support best dashboard execution and concurrency performance, MicroStrategy has chosen to limit the number of logical CPUs engaged for any single grid evaluation to  4 . Columns on which some of the larger...
