We are using DS to do this... Job Flow is something like this HashFile, Transform, SeqFile, OraBulk(DB) In the Transform we use a parameter(parmStartRow) on the constraint (link), which say only pick records from Hash where @INROWNUMBER>parmStartRow So initialy parmStartRow=0, When the job fails say...

Restarting a Oracle Bulk Load where it left off...

We are planning to use Oracle Bulk Load stage to do a bulk load(not manual load)... What we intend to do is to re-start the bulk from where it left-off... Eg: Say we have 100,000 rows to load commit freqency = 10,000 While bulk load, it committed 5 times (50,000) and failed on the 6th time commit......

True...it is one physical hash-file...why did Ascential provide an option to have both reference link and normal link to hashfile stage??? Do you think there was a reason for that??? All I am trying to do is not cacheing the hashfile...just doing lookup and updating it...its a trade-off to write eac...

Thank You... I have tried it and it works fine with different hash-files(as in ur picture)... but i was looking to do it using one hashfile(same one)... it wil make it easy as i will have many lookups(links) and many update(links) from the transformer depending on the link-contraint. And that was wh...

Ken, Thank You for the reply... I tried doing it and it gives "cyclic or linear dependencies" error on the transformer. I need to keep the hash-file uptodate to make sure the next record processed does a lookup on the updated hashfile(not to miss the lookup for record which is already proc...

Lookup & update of HashFile from same transformer

Can we have lookup & update of the same hashfile from the same transformer.

From a transformer I have to "lookup" a hashfile and also "update" the same hash if its not there in the hashfile(have one dashed-link for lookup & one link for update to hashfile)

Flattening the Cross Product

Can I use COLUMN EXPORT STAGE to do the flattenning part(vertical pivoting) of the data???

Can we use any of the other Restructure stages available in PX 7x?

Is there other way to do it without using the concatenation of fields suggested....

Please give you feedback ASAP....its URGENT!!!
