AllRuleCalcStargateOptimization

Parameter type: optional, static

Typically, Cognos® TM1® performs calculations for standard consolidations and then calculates values for rule-based consolidations, which may end up overriding values in the standard consolidations. The AllRuleCalcStargateOptimization parameter provides optimization that first checks if every value in the view is rule-calculated and then proceeds as follows:

• If every value in the view is rule-calculated, then Cognos TM1 skips the unnecessary calculations for standard consolidations and just performs the rule-calculated consolidations.
• If the view contains even a single value which is not rule-calculated, then this optimization parameter will have no effect.

When this parameter is set to True, some additional processing will take place for every view that is requested to first check if the view contains only rule-calculated values. For most views, this additional processing is minimal since the optimization is stopped after the first value in the view is found to be not rule-calculated.

To enable this parameter, set the parameter's value to T in the Cognos TM1 server configuration file, Tm1s.cfg, as follows:

AllRuleCalcStargateOptimization=T

The default setting is disabled (F).
