TimeXtender Desktop Q&A

Hi,  I was wondering if the CData data provider supports Bearer Authentication. The API request I'm trying to make is to a small 3rd party Application. Regards, Emil H

Currently we are facing a problem with memory resources when we're trying to do a data export. When writing a huge file, 4 gb, the memory allocated to this TX process takes up more resources than  we would like (> 22gb of RAM). Is there any possibility for breaking up the data export in partions, such that the process takes up less RAM? I would think there would be some kind of option like the data batch cleansing in the table settings, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.   Within the data export we use the TimeXtender File Export 2.0.0.0 provider. 

Currently, we are rendering an error when we want to do a Transfer task for with the ODX server. We are trying to read an PxPlus data source via an ODBC driver, TimeXtender correctly shows all available tables and columns, and synchronizing also seems to work fine. However, when we try to transfer the data the following error is returned:The source does allow any schema's, and it seems that TimeXtender nevertheless tries to envoke a query with a schema (I think the error is returned because of the []. before the tablename). We have tried some things in the Query formatting and Character Replacement, but we can't get it to work properly. TimeXtender version: 20.10.1.64ODX Server version 20.10.1

Hi, I have a large FACT-tables in my DWH (copy from a view in stage). I have tried to add partitions. I didn't help that much, so I removed it again.But since I removed it, the table can't be deployed. I get the below error. I can re-add the partition, but still the same error: An error occurred during drop partition function. See exception details for the failing objectAn error occurred during drop user defined function. See exception details for the failing object: Drop failed for PartitionFunction 'FactSalesOrder_History_PartitionFunction'.An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.Partition function 'FactSalesOrder_History_PartitionFunction' is being used by one or more partition schemes.

I am using the Field Validation to test our ETL. Using this as source data:And these rules in the DSA:And this query to check for errors:I get the following result:The _L table is linking to the records in the _R table that were removed when they failed the validation step on FIRST_NAME. Also the Warning level notification is not present in the table.As it stands the _L, _R, and _M tables as joined above are showing incorrect or at least confusing information. Am I using them as they were intended to be used, and has anyone done anything to get around this?Thanks,Mark

Is it possible to create a clustered column-store index in TimeXtender 20.103.64?

Hi!Can you clearify that if I run a full load ( on a source based incremental table), it doesn't update the _I table with the current max value? In our scenario, I run a full load very early in the morning and then run incremental loads during the day. But I have seen that the first incremental load of the day takes a very long time to run which I suspect is due to there being a lot of changes since the last incremental load, i.e. the full load's transfer is ignored by the incremental load?So the first incremental load, more or less, transfers the same data that the full load did?Version 19.11.7.64RegardsNiclas

Hi, I need more information on how i can do continuous integration in discovery hub.

We are trying to get a csv file of 10 gb into TimeXtender but it takes very long for TimeXtender to get this loaded and sometimes we are getting an error (system out of memory). Is there a solution or something else we can try to get big csv files into TimeXtener or can we change the CSV file to get it loaded into TimeXtender? We are now using the Cdata adapter and already used the multiple/single file adapter.   Thanks for the response!

We started to use the configuration continue without data in case a transfer fails. The feature works fine, and we also see the message that one or more datasources fail. My question is, how can we easily see which datasources failed, and with what error message?  

Hello, Which settings are needed in order to get Google Mail send success and failure emails in TimeXtender?  I tried it with  Servername: smtp.gmail.com Port: 25/465/587 Enable SSL/TLS: Checked Allow invalid certificates: Checked From Email: my.name@gmail.com User name: my.name@gmail.com Password: <my gmail password> To Email: another.email@gmail.com   I get different failure responses:  25: 5.7.0 Authentification required 465: Syntax error, command not recognized 587: 5.7.0 Authentification required   Without SSL/TLS I get: A secure connection is required for the smtp server or the client is not authentificated. Server response was: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first.   The responses are translated from german to english so please don't take them literally.   What are the corrected settings here? Is it something in my google account?

How can I execute a stored procedure once a load of a table is done. I know it should be possible. I just don't know where I should configure it  

Hi, We use TX as a part of our value chain of systems using data. We need to programatically be able to check if the execution is done, so the following jobs can start.I know TX can send an email when completed, but we really do not want to build the check on emails. Does anyone have a good idea on how to do this? Hope you can help. Best regards Michael Vaisgaard

I'm currently migrating an Azure MI solution to ADLS Gen2 and Synapse Analytics. The migration includes remapping all DSA table ... instead of using an old ODX, DSA will now use an ADLS Gen2 on ODX Server. Mapping tables bring all data source fields across ... it would be nice to have the usual option to only synchronize existing fields as it's a lot of fields to delete when getting the entire data source table.
