Is it passive or active when check and uncheck the box of DISTINCT in Sorter transformation? why?..

Answer / saritha

It is Active transformation.
If you configure the Sorter transformation for distinct
output rows, the Mapping Designer configures all ports as
part of the sort key. When the PowerCenter Server runs the
session, it discards duplicate rows compared during the
sort operation.

Sorter Transformation is passive when the DISTINCT option
is unchecked bcoz it wont change the number of records
passes through it. Once the DISTINCT option is checked it
may change the no of records if the records has duplicates.

Is it passive or active when check and uncheck the box of DISTINCT in Sorter transformation? why?..

Answer / saradhi

if we check the box distinct means u are eliminating the
duplicate record.so here if we check the distinct while
sorting its eliminating the duplicate records and after its
sorts so the number of records in target are less compared
to source for that it is calles as active. if we uncheck
this all the records are transforms into target table so it
is passive.
