Field length size increase from import set didn't get promoted to other environment

Cupcake

I did a Load data in DEV, and I noticed that one of the fields called Description was very lengthy and was truncating the information. Then I figured out that I had to increase the size of field within the Import Set itself. That resolved the problem.

My issue is after I do the initial load data, then I import the information to the other environments and it does not appear that the field length size of the description increased when I imported the data. So in my other environments the description field is truncated still.

So I am trying to figure out how can I increase that field size in the other environments when I did an import vs. a Load Data.

Please advise when you get a chance.

Karen,



When you increased the field length in dev, was that change captured in an update set? Was that update set promoted to the other environments?

Hi Chuck, 

does this property "com. glide. loader. verify_target_field_size" really helps in  to automatically expand the staging table field length based on incoming data?
