Re: Compressing Rows

What should be the output for: ID COL_a COL_b COL_c 1 a1 NULL NULL 1 a3 b1 NULL 1 NULL NULL c1 2 a2 NULL NULL 2 NULL NULL c2 for the records starting with ID = 1 for the above data? Each column can only have one not null value for each unique ID..This has been ensured Thanks, Kanchan

It seems that if the cpp file is compiled with the compiler name provided in APT_COMPILER option(as it is cxx in my case),then only the parallel routine would work. while trying to compile with cxx(a part of mks toolkit), the following error comes: C:\cygwin>cxx -c sum.cpp NuTCRACKER not properly in...

The same process as I have stated works in a AIX system if I use the DS specified compiler to compile(but g++ do not work). But while tring to use the datastage specified compiler(APT_C...

What (stage type) are you looking up from and how have you declared whether it is a normal or a sparse lookup? ... Hi ArndW, Thanks for your reply. I further investigated and could resolve experimentally. Actually when I connect a new lookup stage into an existing flow by detaching a link and conne...

Hi, Thanks to Ray and Kim for your valuable inputs.I am confused with two points: First, does DS_JOBOBJECTS hold any information about the associated schema of column definitions..or it is assigned at runtime..I did check the structure of DS_JOBOBJECTS, but could not find any..also this is not docum...

Thanks Ray,

Well My plan is to access the metadata using the link names and get them saved in the saved category of DS_METADATA table.I was going through some of the posts which include routines by you and Kim...can they be inherited to suit this requirement?

Thanks,'

Then, in a typical DW environment the best way would be to keep that default date throughout all your staging area and make them null in the final database..on which your reporting tool will work.

I am not sure abt Dynamic RDBMS stage...as my client didnt agree upon this to use..
Thanks,

similar error

Hi,
We used to get this error in similar situation using oracle enterprise stage.No straight forward solutions yet..but defaulting the null values with a out-of-range date can be done.Later on a procedure can update those values with null in oracle.

Thanks,

releasing locks

I think we can do this by the clean-up resources option in the director..the PID of the locked job will be shown..

Thanks,
