Answer 1

In general, I suggest you to keep DateTime dimensions without holes and with a older bound in the past and a far away bound in the future, so you can query without problems.

If you cannot edit your cube definition, you may play around with FirstChild and LastChild operators in MDX to get start date and end date in you scenario (I suppose your dates are sorted).
