Resetting Jobs From Command Prompt

Hi,

I am running 100+ instances of a Multi-Instance Sequence job. When I need to reset the aborted jobs , one way to reset them manually one by one via Director. But its a very slow process.

Is there any command line option available to reset the jobs via command line?

Thanks,
Sjordery.

Hi Vamsi,

Sorry, it didn't work. I am getting the same error.

I tried with this:

cd $DSHome/bin

PROJECT=P_Dev
JOB=test_job

RunInfo=`dsjob -run -jobstatus $PROJECT $JOB 2>&1`
echo $RunInfo


Thanks,
Sjordery.

I've had this with multiple lookups with multiple ODBC connectors. The downstream DB connections seem to time out waiting for data to flow from the earlier lookups. The only way I found to get around it is either: A) If you are using lookups - examine your strategy, ie. whether you are using normal ...

Thanks for your reply. I have just tried rebuilding the job from scratch and all was looking good until I set the lookup type to sparse, at which point it goes to RCP checked on. Setting it to normal puts it back to RCP unchecked! So.. is it not possible to have sparse lookup and RCP 'off'? Thanks a...

Looping Using Stage Variable

I have a requirement like this: The input file has one column called code whose value is 7878D0990. In that I need to search from backward and get the alphabet found i.e D. The value changes in every run. I am thinking to use stage variables but not sure how to perform looping using stage variables....

For anyone else that gets this message and finds this thread via a search, the cause of this error message for me was running a job that was writing to datasetA whilst concurrently trying to read datasetA in another job!

where data is stored between stages when the job is running

Hi All, I have a conceptual doubt. When data flows from one stage (process) to another stage where it stores the intermediate data i.e after the 1st stage finishes reading and before 2nd stage starts reading. Does it use any temporary data sets? Also when buffering comes in to picture. Thanks in Adv...
