    From Ekta's support case:

    We have confirmed with development that this utility is not yet released, so it is not currently available or supported.

    Hi,

     

    is this status for no availability & support still true? I work on CA TDM 4.6, does I find it anyhow there, as shown in the video (https://communities.ca.com/videos/4256)?

     

    TIA, Carsten

    Hi Carsten,

    Correct, this is still not supported , * however *

    This might be something to try:

          AddTable activitity populates one table

     

          in Tables list

          so if user wants to compare 10 tables , the user adds 10 AddTable activities

          the list will then be used in the last activity processTablesComparison

          that last one creates a xml file to be fed to the dbcompare utility

    Hello Ryan,

     

    You should remove it from the youtube section.

     

    Thanks
