Problem Note 46416: Using a data loader to change the name of an auxiliary dimension causes a "Can't set the parent..." error, and can cause database corruption
 |  |  |  |  |
When you use a data loader to change the name of an auxiliary dimension in SAS® Enterprise GRC, the loader might leave your database in an invalid state. The invalid state of the database prevents you from working with auxiliary dimensions. An error like the following appears in the data loader results spreadsheet:
Can't set the parent of this AuxOrgDim1 to be one of its descendants
If this error occurs, and your database is corrupted, then you should restore your database from the most recent backup.

Until you apply the hot fix, do not use a data loader to change the name of an auxiliary dimension.
