1. Walk through the steps to reconfigure the Data Source (Proceed, then license check, Field Mapping screen, Click Continue), no need to change anything; simply click Save.
2. Obtain Build Directory information by clicking on the information button in the lower left corner of the dataset configuration window.

  - *vi /data/brainspace/builds/YOUR BUILD NAME HERE(i.e. 9fc91c69-2ee9-4730-bb7b-422e92149984)/config/output.config*
4. Add *IncrementData=yes* to the last line. Save and exit (Esc Key, :wq).
