Answer / chow

In my view all t/rs r passive.Depending upon the using t/rs
u can say it is passive or not.For ex what kalyani saying
about filter t/r(it is a active).ok
Suppose i have a source with 10 records in 10th
department.And i give a condition in filter as deptno=10.In
this situation filter recieve 10 records and passes 10
records.
In this situation filter is active?

All active transformations r passive or not?..

Answer / vishnu

My answer would be like in the case of filter t/r if the c ondition is not mentioned then the default condition is true i.e., all the records from the source r moved to the target in this situation filter t/r acts as passive.
suppose in aggregator t/r if we r not mentioned any group by port then last record will be displayed in this situation it acts as active.So not all active t/rs are passive

Answer / kalyani

An active transformation can change number of rows that
pass through it, such as a
filter transformation that removes rows that do not meet
the filter condition

A passive transformation does not change the number of
rows that pass through it,
such as Expresion transformation that performs a
calculation on data and passes all rows
