Sometimes we face a need to adjust generic extractor parameters
directly in the production environment. For instance Safety Interval
Upper Limit can be technically adjusted in the source development system
and then transported to all environments including production. However,
when the generic extractor is used in production on a regular basis and
if the table it is based on is constantly updated it becomes difficult
to re-initialize the relevant datasource without a complete stop of the
Production environment. In the case like this we need to have an option
of adjusting extractor’s parameters directly without its reactivation.
Case Description:
If the Safety Interval Upper Limit has to be increased, for instance,
from 30 minutes to 60 minutes, according to the standard procedure we
have to make the change in the Development environment (Transaction Code
RSO2), transport it all the way to production and re-initialize the delta process.
