Clear Preserve Partitioning flag on dataset via command?

Post by zulfi123786 »

Hi,

Is there a way to clear the Preserve Partitioning flag of a dataset via command line.

My problem will also be solved if there is any hidden option to clear the PP flag while copying a dataset to another where the source has PP flag set.

Thanks

There's no option on the orchadmin command to modify the preserve partitioning flag. At least none that I know of...

It deletes data segments, copies files, and describes (displays) file settings. It doesn't modify settings.

Yes, according to the official documentation of orchadmin, was not sure if there are any hacks that some one has tried and succeded.

Nope the descriptor file contains text mixed with lots of binary data. Can't just edit it.
