Title: Framework Manager Question
Post by: saumil287 on 02 Oct 2011 11:20:19 PM
Hi All,
I want to know If I create datasource in framwork manager which directly links to production database.
If I import tables and relationships usingthe same datasource in framework manager and make some modification like renaming query subjects,deleting query subjects,relationships or creating relationships etc any operation that we can do in Framework manager , a component in cognos express 9.5 or cognos FM 8.4.1.
Will it affects the underlying original database or not ?

Hi,

Nothing you do in Framework Manager will affect the underlying database.  All you are doing is importing metadata based on the database, then changing that metadata within Framework Manager. Nothing is written back to the database when you make these changes, so you will not be able to break the database by doing this.

Best regards,

MF.
