That is not what I said.

I agree, I wrote it in a hurry as 'Not switchable'

Does the hash files DS_JOBS , DS_JOBOBJECTS which are in project directory is supported and loaded in DS 8.X , as is done in 7.5 ( both server and PX editions ) ?. Not in hashed files any more. What is your underlaying repository database. I think repository is in UV , as we Currently we are using ...

It doesn't switch Version Control. If you are planning on using a new version of VC then you need to install it while 'switched' to the new client and only use it under the same circumstances - new client only, new projects only. If you want to stick with your older version of VC, don't install the...

[quote="seanc217"]I'm not sure how version control will be affected. I have not used version control because we planned to go to version 8 from the very beginning so we did not use it. Sorry I can't be of help here.[/quote]

thank you seanc217 and I appreciate your help.

[quote="seanc217"]The answer is yes. And I have used it to switch between 7.5x2 and version 8.[/quote] Thanks for the reply. Are there any issues or constraints with the usage of Multi Client Manager with packages like 7.5 version control client etc. If I use datastage parallel 8.0 , I wil...

[quote="csrazdan"]Version 8.0 has some good additional development tools for resource and performence estimation but product is not stable yet. If I were you I would stay on 7.5.x untill IBM does not release 8.2.x.[/quote] I will be using basic stages in 7.5 and of course performance and e...

[quote="ray.wurlod"]Are you seeking my opinion as a technician or as an IBM shareholder? :lol:[/quote]

As a technician.

we are planning to start developing parallel Jobs and currently we had DS 7.5.2 enterprise edition. IBM recommends to go to Version 8 and then start developing saying there are conversion issues from 7.5 to 8 for parallel Jobs?. I am not sure whether they are trying to sell Version 8?. which one you...

1. Are there any Multi Client Manager exist to switch the client between DS parallel 7.5.2 to 8 (Hawk version)?

I had this code in constraint of the datastage transformer stage. [color=red][b](lValidatedXpn.SourceNum # "03" or IsNull(lValidatedXpn.SourceNum)[/b][/color] the '#' character seems to be very odd here . we use # as parameter usage delimiter. based on this business logic, I am guessing th...

[quote="ray.wurlod"]Why do you want to do this? [/quote] we have literally 100's of temporary hash files, which are very huge( 200 Meg ) in some cases and often we need to debug the data based one field or other which matches in multiple rows or 1000's rows. simple search on VIEW data in s...

I need to dump hash file data to flat file and I can't create a datastage job for creating a job to dump it. are there any way I can create by running a uv command or some thing like that to create flat file in UNIX. we have hundreads of hash files and we can't create a job for each hash file to dum...

I heard about the concept of creating a EE Job ( 7.5 .1) in one machine and running the executable in another machine which doesn't have any datastage installed or Just run time installed. Did any body have some information on this like 1. is it possible to do that . If so How effectively it is work...

I am trying to create some EE parallel Job after working in server edition for some time. I am looking for a Null handling strategy for a our datawarehouse which basically processes sequential files. I thought this approach could do well. but want to confirm. ---- Create a separate parallel Job ( do...

Did Datastage fix this problem in its latest EE version ?. I am also getting this problem when comparing values using compare stage. ( from single column from single column data from a transformer and aggregate stage.) I see sed in /usr/bin in AIX 5.3, but couldn't find dbx in /usr/bin in the machin...
