I don't believe there are any actions possible from Mid-Tier or the User tool that will cause a table to be recreated.
Yes I believe there are still some actions from DevStudio (or the API) that can cause the table to be recreated, but they should be limited to structure changes (and any anyone changing your table structure should know about the primary key). Fred -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Axton Sent: Monday, February 27, 2012 9:53 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Remedy Table Recreation First, some background information: It used to be the case that certain operations would trigger Remedy to recreate a database table: - rename existing table - create new table with the original name - copy the data from the renamed table to the new table - drop the renamed table I remember altering the precision on a decimal field would trigger this, and I seem to also remember something with currency fields. Now for the issue: We have applied changes to every table in the Remedy database to define a primary key. This primary key is used for Oracle Streams replication to a target database. If the table is recreated, the primary key is dropped, which can cause Streams to choke if the table contains a large volume of data. Now for the question: Does anyone know of an action that a user can perform through the Remedy clients that will cause a table to be recreated in this manner? When I say "Remedy Clients" I am referring to Dev Studio, User Tool, ITSM applications, mid-tier, or the Remedy API. Relevant Environment Information: - Oracle 11g - ARServer 7.5 - Apps 7.5 (ITSM, CMDB, etc.) Thanks, Axton Grams _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
