Debugging job execution
Here, I will explain the use of Data Services Interactive Debugger. In this recipe, I will debug the DF_Transform_DimGeography
dataflow.
The debugging process is the process of defining the points in the ETL code (dataflow in particular) that you want to monitor closely during job execution. By monitoring it closely, I mean to actually see the rows passing through or even to have control to pause the execution at those points to investigate the current passing record more closely.
