hello all

I am trying to delete the dataset through Dataset management option. But when i click on Dataset management button, i was direclty taken to location like "/dsProj/Datasets" where i can see datasets, but cannot delete them.

I remember, in version 7.5.2, when i click Dataset management, a new window used to open which has row count on each node, options to delete dataset, copy dataset etc. I couldnt see that window in 8.1.

I wish to delete datasets through Dataset management only, but not trough orchadmin command. Please reply.

What happens when you choose a dataset in the window; doesn't it open up the dataset details window?

It doesnt open any details. When i clicked it, window is closed and returned to designer.

When i clicked it, it is trying to open something and i can see that as a white screen. But it stays as a white screen for a long time. Then i have top forcibly close the designer window.

There is a delete button on the top right. I also use 8.1 and i could delete dataset using Dataset Management. Click on Tools --> Dataset Management , Then select .ds file it will open a window and you can see #partition,nodes and also delete button.

I have created a ds file and when i checked the dataset management window, i see no nodes. But total records were listed on the right, but the node distribution is not present. I couldnt understand whats going on. Where the records are created and i dont know why it is not showing the nodes in dataset management window. For some other jobs, it is showing the nodes.

It is possible that the control file (.ds) is still there, but the actual data has been deleted. View the data/Try an orchadmin dump <dataset> to see if the data is still there.

When was this dataset created? After creation did you make any hardware/node changes?

In your case by default dataset folder is holding the data files and the header (.ds) files are most probably in your project folder somewhere. [Search the RT_xxx folders, if you know the job number which created the datasets search those RT_xxx folders]. From there you will be able to do what you intend to do.
