I dont think there will be any impact other than changing the IP address for the host system (the server where datastage is installed) .If the database is installed in a different server other thn the server where datastage is installed check with your DBA to configure it accordingly

Nagesh,

I had the same problem , but it strange Datastage behaves that way :x
To fix this remove the links and again attach it with input link to be the first one to be attached to lookup . This is need to be done ,eventhough the link order may show that it is in correct order
