Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 R2 fix release.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You have a partition that has a dimension on a computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services (SSAS 2008 R2).

  • The partition uses an aggregation design, and the partition is fully processed.

  • You change the aggregation design.

  • You run the ProcessUpdate command against the dimension.

In this scenario, you might receive the following error message:

Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred.


Cause

This issue occurs because partition aggregations are not synchronized with the aggregation design.
