Dataset and Configuration File

Post by atulgoel »

Hi,

Suppose I have 2 jobs. One is creating a Dataset and second job is reading the dataset (created by first job).

After creating the dataset by first job, If configuration file get changed, will second job be able to read the dataset created by first job.

Is there any option in configuration file , if we change that and it will effect the reading of dataset created by previous configuration file.

Thanks
Atul

Hi Atul,

The second job will be able to read the dataset created by the first job as the reading of dataset is not dependent on the configuration file of the current job but the copy of the configuration file exist in the control file or the descriptor file of the dataset you are trying to read.

Bhaskar
