bw_activate
Activate BW objects (aDSO, Transformation, DTP, etc.) using a lock handle; use empty for DTP/DataSource. Automatically unlocks and lists DTPs deactivated by impact analysis, which must be reactivated.
Instructions
Activate one BW object (aDSO, Transformation, DTP, InfoObject, InfoSource, DataSource, or CompositeProvider). Pass the lock_handle from bw_update_adso or bw_update_transformation. For DTP and DataSource (rsds) activation use lock_handle="" (no lock needed — standalone activation). For object_type "rsds" also pass source_system (a DataSource is identified by DataSource name plus source system). Unlock is sent automatically after activation (not for DTPs or DataSources). The response lists any DTPs deactivated by impact analysis — these must be re-activated.
