Re Naming DataSets
You can use DataSet Management in the TOOLS to achieve this. But the exact functionality for which you are doing this is not going to get resolved. In DataStage you cannot rename a DataSet. You can only copy it and reuse it using the Orchadmin cmd.

That is ill-advised, because the segment files' names on the resource disk include the descriptor file name.Sainath.Srinivasan wrote:If you are only interested on the .ds file, you can rename it in Unix itself.

Ill-advised ? But when do you think anyone will work directly on the data segments ? Any orchadmin on the .ds file will automatically impact the segment files.ray.wurlod wrote:That is ill-advised, because the segment files' names on the resource disk include the descriptor file name.Sainath.Srinivasan wrote:If you are only interested on the .ds file, you can rename it in Unix itself.
So I do not think it is a bad idea.
Even in oracle, when you truncate a table, all it does is to remove the high-water mark. In Unix, when you delete a file, it only nullifies the inode. Similar is this case.
