Data frm SERVER doesnt match with Parallel in Change Capture

Hi, I have a server job which I exactly replicated as a parallel job to make the process run faster. I am trying to compare the files from both jobs (Server and Parallel) with change capture stage to make sure the old process data matches with the new process data. The SERVER job output is a FIXED W...

Sorting in Change capture

Hi,

Do I have to sort the fields mentioned as keys in the same order as they are in change capture stage?


ie: If i mention the the columns a,b,c,d as keys, do i have top do the sort in the same order (a,b,c,d) ?

Do I have to perform a sort on the fields mentioned as values also?

In the parallel job the inputs to the Change Capture stage need not only to be sorted identically on the comparison keys but also hash partitioned identically on the comparison keys. Have you ensured that this is the case? Change Capture stage will report whether the second input row is an edit of ...

Can I use Change capture for this ?

Hi, I have a question about how change capture works. Does change capture compare rows in the order they are located on the file, or does it look if that row exists anywhere in the file ? let me explain ... I have 2 versions of the same job ..... one is a server job and one is a parallel job ( they ...

Clearing logs for all jobs at once?

Is there a way that I can clear logs of all jobs in under a category?. We have about 10 jobs which generate a hell of a log and they are run atleast 4 times everyday.

Is it possible to clear the logs of all jobs at once manually or set a time to clear them automatically ?


Thanx
