ORACLE CONNECTOR AND HIGH USE OF METADATA ORACLE ALL_SYNONYM

Thank you for your time.

All of your suggestions are application side....some to implement...
Is there nothing-sys-admin-side, that ensure correct restore in case of fault!?

Our sys men use TSM, and this is why I asked in first post if Back Up of File System is safe for Datastage.

Thanks

What do you mean about "searching for lineage".
Workbench?

Can I identify all occurences similarly to that shown in my previous post, so that I can apply them to a search&replace procedure?


Thanks

It is unthinkable to make it through an implementation task. So, is it possible to apply the change directly to DSX or XML file, containing the ...
