Problem with table metadata re-importing.

0 Kudos

Hi,

In DataInsight project, I try to reimport a table metadata which was used in several views, rule bindings and rule tasks. Information Steward does not allow to reimport this table. It only permit me to reconcile this table. However, the renamed columns do not change. So my question is: Do I have to delete all rule tasks, rule bindings, views before reimporting this table ? Is there any way to solve this issue ?

Thanks.

In general, this is a difficult issue indeed. What do you want IS to do with all dependent objects (views, rules, bindings...) when an object definition changes? That change will most probably invalidate some/many/all of those objects.

In fact, Data Insight is aimed at profiling, analyzing, validating... production data. Of which the structure rarely changes. But in case it does, I am afraid you'll have to delete/recreate all those objects when importing the new definition.
