Refresh Fail
Hi All,
I facing the below error on my schedule refresh.
Data source errorResource Governing: This operation was canceled because there wasn’t enough memory to finish running it. Either increase the memory of the Premium capacity where this dataset is hosted or reduce the memory footprint of your dataset by doing things like limiting the amount of imported data. More details: consumed memory 16684 MB, memory limit 16679 MB, database size before command execution 8920 MB. Learn more, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2159753
My enviormnent:
Power BI Premium Capacity P1 with autoscaling feature on.
Any one have idea where I need to change the memory or I need to upgrade the capacity to P2..?
Thanks for your kind reply.
Hi ImranAslamSSW ,
When the data refresh commences but fails to complete, it can be due to several reasons:
- Insufficient memory, even if there is only one model in the Premium capacity, i.e. the model size is very large.
- Non-capacity reasons, including datasource system disconnection, invalid permissions or gateway error.
Capacity Admins (and Power BI service administrators) can monitor the Refresh Failures due to out of Memory metric.
When additional Premium capacity is required, there are two options:
- Scale-up an existing Premium capacity
- Add a new Premium capacity
More details: Optimizing Premium capacities
If you want to upgrade the capacity to P2. Power BI admins and global administrators can change Power BI Premium capacity. Capacity admins who are not a Power BI admin or global administrator don't have this option.
-
Select the capacity name you want to change the size of.
-
Select Change size. You can see.
- On the Change size screen, upgrade or downgrade your capacity as appropriate.
