Changing environment properties

Hi all

I recently changed the environment properties of the development environment to have the AX data source point to the live environment instead of the test environment. I hoped that executing (without deploying) the staging area would refill all staging tables with live data instead of test data (all full loads, no incrementals), but it didn't. In fact, what needs to be done, is deploying by manually marking all tables to be redeployed in the deployment screen, as nothing has changed according to TimeXtender.

Is it possible to make the SSIS package connections dynamically looking at the environment properties (this way an execute would suffice)? Or mark the staging tables to be redeployed?

TimeXtender version 16.8.1.64; project is using SSIS.

Thanks!

Hi kgts, 

 

Thanks for your comments. 

In newer releases of TX there have been a number of improvements to the Differential Deployment feature. This feature is what allows TX to compare the project to the DB and only deploy the needed objects. In this case TX would only need to redeploy the SSIS package because of the new source location. I attempted to recreate your scenario using the newest release of TX DWA 16.10.4. As you can see from the screenshot, TX is correctly redeploying only the needed SSIS packages.

I would recommend upgrading to the most recent version of TX DWA which can be found here. 

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
