Loading and maintaining data in a data domain
Integrator provides four components to load and maintain data in a data domain: Bulk Add/Replace, Merge Records, Modify Records, and Delete Records.
About load graphs
Load graphs share a similar implementation, whether they were developed for initial load of data or for a subsequent baseline. The Integrator Sample Applications include a full load graph, named LoadData, that you can use as a model for building your own load graphs.
Adding records and assignments
Use the Merge Records component to add new records to the data domain, or to add new assignments to existing records.
Modifying records
Use the Modify Records component to modify the assignments on a record. You can add new assignments, replace existing assignments, or delete assignments from the record.
Backing up and restoring data domains
Use operations in the Manage Web Service to back up and restore data domains.
Deleting data from the data domain
You can delete all data from the data domain, delete complete records from the data domain, or delete specific assignments from a record.
