sdelayer alter

jayasudha

I have created a feature class under a feature dataset.

Then modified feature class properties by using sdelayer by using feature class owner (same used in creating feature class) and password.

But when i use sde admin credentials, i get error "Layer not found"

Please suggest me....

All 'sdelayer' administration should always be performed as the owner schema. If the privileges are set correctly, the SDE user should NOT be able to edit layer metadata for other users, so this behavior is actually good news -- Your instance is working according to design.

You should always be extremely careful using command-line tools against layers registered with the geodatabase. There aren't many cases in which the Desktop tool won't be much safer for your geodatabase integrity.

I've never even considered giving such permissions, much less tried it, so I have no idea, but I would sincerely hope that it doesn't work. In maintenance utilities I've written, I give a specific error message if the non-owner attempts to make such changes.

It is best practice to avoid using the SDE user for anything beyond instance maintenance. The less you use SDE, the less likely that you'll corrupt your geodatabase.
