If we are using an aggregator but forget to mention the group by port .what will be the output??..

Answer / srinu

No group by Port-
The AggTrans wil check for group by Column port up to last
column. No group by port was find,The AggTrans wil return
the last row only.
Every Column row wil check for Group by port done or not,
up to last row.
Finally (By default) last row will return.
Last Row still waiting for Group by port.,,,,
Thats why Group by prot is must.

Any Corrections,,,,,srinu.srinuvas@gmail.com
