Update A Catalogue Data Location

It can be useful to migrate data from one database to another. Instead of reimporting a catalogue, RDMP allows you to repoint the catalogue to the location of your moved data.

How to

  • Right Click an a Catalogue > Catalogue Items > Update Catalogue Data Location
  • This will open a new dialog
  • From here, you can select which columns you wish to update and tell RDMP where the new location is
  • RDMP will perform several checks to make sure the new data location is available and of the correct types
  • It will inform you of any issues it comes across, otherwise will migrate the catalogue data references to the selected location

What Does it change?

This functionality updates the underlying ColumnInfo to point to the new table. It also updates the extractionInformation SelectSQL to allow for future extractions to continue to work. If you select a never-before-seen table, RDMP will also generate a new known table record in case of future use
