Craig,

Got it!

But is the one(Select statement in UV) I mentioned earlier, one of the ways to count or select records from a hashed file?

Thanks.

This is really strange! Yesterday night the job took 54 minutes to complete. It processed 2000 rows/second. There has been no change in the job, the record count or the hardware. The database and DataStage engine are on the same box. My thought is this job runs slow when CPU and memory are being uti...

Just another thought/question

Does increasing the priority of this job allocate more CPU time(if any) to it? If yes then how can it be achieved?

Thanks.

Forgot to ask -

Once source and target table names are retrieved using the UV query, how can they be differentiated? Is there an indicator flag that tells X table is used in source DRS stage and Y table is used in target DRS stage?

Thanks again.

I browsed through the Server forum and found that I'd have to query/join DS_JOBS and DS_JOBOBJECTS. I also tried a few ones like the one below but since I don't know the metadata o...

Craig, We have around 700 jobs in more than 20 directories(with several sub-directories inside them) in a project in Designer. When a job abends I locate it using the steps mentioned in my previous post. Then open Designer, debug and restart it. So I was wondering if there is a way to run UV command...
