Dimension Hierarchy Attributes

A dimension hierarchy can be enabled or disabled at runtime. When disabled, there are no computations performed for that hierarchy. By default, all hierarchies are enabled.

To disable a hierarchy, add the enabled="false" attribute to the hierarchy. For example: 

<hierarchy name="ByService" enabled="false">

This value takes effect only when you restart he Service Performance Manager server.

The DimensionHierarchy.getEnabled() indicates whether or not the hierarchy is enabled. If the method returns true, the hierarchy is enabled. The API to disable the hierarchy is MutableDimensionHierarchy.setEnabled(false).
