Re: copy dataset from one server to another
In my understanding datasets cannot be copied between servers. We can write the contents of a dataset into a file and then copy it.dnat wrote:Hi,

As Ray said - you are basically correct that the datasets cannot be easily copied. If your APT_CONFIG file settings point to the same absolute paths on both servers then you could copy the data files and the descriptor file across machines. But it is better to dump the dataset into a sequential file either by using a simple DataStage job or the orchadmin dump command line to generate a file that can be copied across machines and then a small DataStage job to re-load that data into a DataSet.

Re: copy dataset from one server to another
first you need to have a NFS mount on your development server that is pointing to your test server. write a generic job with RCP turned on that has an input dataset and an output dataset. Your output set should have as its directory the remotely mounted filesystem.dnat wrote:Hi,
