All,

 

 

Is it possible to run part of a workflow?

 

 

I've got a process that reads 12 feature classes of ~85,000 features each.

 

 

I got to the very last one, and it bailed out.*

 

 

Can I just re-run that 12th one?

 

 

*bailed out because adding a writer takes the DB name of the reader - why?

Hi,

 

 

Search for the feature types to read parameter in the navigator.

 

Hope this helps.

That was it...

 

 

...except... I forgot to turn off "truncate table first" on the writer, now I gotta do the whole kit and kaboodle over again anyway...

 

 

Good to know regardless!

 

 

Thank you!

Bummer, create a parameter from that too so when you prompt and run you know what the writer settings are.

Hi,

 

 

another tip for you: most Readers have a "Start feature" paramater (under Advanced in the Navigator) where you can specify the feature number to start your execution with.

I usually insert a Recorder-transformer in the workflow after alot of heavy processing have been done. And then a Player-transformer to play from that point and disable the normal Readers. Then at the end when the complete workspace is done, I would remove these and run the complete workflow.
