Propagate table defn changes into job

Post by timsmith_s »

Is it possible to change a table defn from say varchar 64 to varchar 255 and have that change propagate to its dependent jobs?

Only if you propagate it. And as far as I know, that hasn't changed in 8.x. :(

Painful! Any suggested approaches, like export DSX files and run a sed or two over them?
