Reading dataset with different configuration

Post by keshav0307 »

In the datastage version 7.5.2 we have; if a dataset is created with two nodes, then this dataset can be read only with a configuration file with 2 nodes and the same node name.

Is there any way to read/overwrite the dataset with any configuration file having any number of node.

I guess, overwrite could be possible. But not read. You ll need to use a Different config file atleast to access the dataset.
Impossible doesn't mean 'it is not possible' actually means... 'NOBODY HAS DONE IT SO FAR'

Best practice is always to use the same configuration file with a Data Set as the one with which it was created.
