Secondary DS is not getting deleted
26 September, 2014
Hi Team,
We are using currently YF build 20140827.
What we have observed that if the datasource (DS) connection has secondary pool enabled and in future if we want to drop/delete the DS connection the DS still doesn't get deleted completely from back end.
In the Meta data when we checked we got to know there are primary and secondary pool connection for same data source. When a user deletes DS connection from UI only the primary data source connection gets deleted .Due to this when a user tries to create a free hand SQL report the older DS still shows up. This is because secondary pool connection is not got deleted.
This could be a serious issue because every DS is bound to a client�s data. If a user has accidentally imported wrong DS and deletes from UI , they might not know that it�s not been deleted completely. For the end user who creates free hand SQL reports this DS connection will still appear.
We observed that if in DS connection secondary pool is disabled and then deleted, this issue would not appear. However this shouldn't work this way. If DS connection is deleted why still secondary DS should exists?
Please look into this issue on high importance as we had faced lot of trouble due to this
Thanks,
Mala

Hi Mala,
Thanks for your patience on this issue.
The task is allocated with the development team, though doesn't look like it can make it into the January release.
We're aiming for Feb.
In the meantime, you will need to remove the secondary data source from the database manually.
Just email support@yellowfin.bi with reference to this post and we can provide more information on how this can be done.
Apologies again for the inconvenience this has caused.

David
