Answer Posted / rajveer

Above scenario holds true when o/p file is diff from driver i/p file. But what if i/p file is getting updated? In that case how we can come to know which all a/c gets updated? One way to avoid such situation is to take backup of the file which is getting updated in previous step, and in case of error restart from backup step.
Leme know if anyone has a diff opinion.
