(GLUE-1812) Deactivate Glue table

You can deactivate a table from Data Dictionary


There are four possible scenarios on how to deactivate a Glue table:

  • Deactivate a table created from DDIC table
    • Table and data in external storage will be dropped and all extractors with their variants will be deactivated.
  • Deactivate a table created from an external table
    • Both table and data in external storage will remain unchanged. All extractors and their variants will be deactivated.
  • Deactivate a table generated as a part of Business Object
    • In this case only table and data in Storage will be dropped. Extractor and variant generated for this table will not be deactivated.
  • Deactivate a table generated by Delta merge
    • In this case deactivation is forbidden.

This step affects Glue extractors, InfoProviders and Business Process Library (BPL) objects. If a table is deactivated, all relevant Glue extractors, InfoProviders and BPL objects are deactivated, too.
