Can i do an update/delete on a different table than what is being used in the SELECT of the oracle enterprise stage? They both are in the same schema
My scenario is to first run an update on <table1> before i start reading another table <table2>. Can i do both in one Oracle Enterprise stage.. ?
I have used Open command option on the stage where i specified the update statement. The job when run doesnt throw any errors, but it doesnt execute the update either..
It is possible. May the update condition is not met. Try something like a truncate on a temp table that has a few rows to verify that it actually works.
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
I actually have no condition for the update.. i just have a plain 'update <tablename> set <column_name> = sysdate
When i enclose the update in single quotes, i get the sql -900 error (Invalid SQL statement), but when i remove the single quotes around it and just use the simple update statement , i get no errors, but i get no result either !!
No ArndW, i have no reject link. This is a source stage reading data from an oracle table, so i havent coded a reject link. There is just no entry in the director log for me to know whether this (BEFORE) OPen command did anything or not.. i mess with the syntax, it throws me an error though !!
Do things change if you add a semicolon? Also, this will get executed on each processing node (in this case it wouldn't make much of a difference, but it is important to realize what DS does).
