length conversion in the datastage
Posted: Mon Dec 11, 2006 7:13 am
Hi all,
when i import the metadata from the oracle tables the length is being changed by four times..eg the datatype is varchar2(30 char) is converted to varchar2(120) in the datastage..
why is this happening..and how is it happening?
If my datatype and length of the column is varchar2(1000 char)
it is converted to varchar2(4000) i heard that this might cause problems while data in the database..
what should i do..??
