calculate

convert the duration into number of days and add them to date in datetime format and this becomes the end date in your case. Make sure in what format the duration exists in your case.

KeyMgtGetNextValue

Hello,
How would you reset surrogate key value generated to load target table from stating number say '1' again? What's exact routine in Before job sub-routine or command used in DS Adminstrator?

thanks,
Tom

Surrogate Key generation

Once a surrogate key is generated on an out row for a column, is this keeps on increasing even if we delete all data and reload.

Is there any way if we can generate from starting number after deleting all data from target table?

Job Scheduling

As you all know, Datastage comes with the add-in component "Director" for job scheduling. Why is it necessary to go for third party tools like "Autosys" or any other job scheduler.

your answers will be helpful

Check DS Manger Guide

I don't think to export data definitions when you are exporting/importing a server job from one server to other. Say from dev to prod box.

check DS Manager guide once.

Job Reset

Resetting a job from either finihed state or from aborted state brings back the job in a stage to be able to recompile the job. Hence by resetting the job, we are able to bring back the job in a runnable state.

Check to see if the container exists in the correct sub-directory in the Data stage jobs. or else the file you are referring through that container exists in correct path.
