it is not easy to write the correct userdefined sql-code.

Please show us, what code you send via odbc and show us also how the genereated code for for example an update looks like.

Hi Raj, the Aggregator is like his name tells us for aggregating. If you don't want to aggregate: don't use the aggregator!!! In a Datebase you cannot use the group by without telling to all fields in the output how they shall be delt. So don't blame DS and its Aggregator. Buy a SQL book and learn a...

Hi raj, a 130+ stage- Job wow. My first smell, without having seen the job: do you need everything so complicate. DataStage is transforming all your grafical code into p-code and then starting to compile this. Such a big job may be feasible with Datastage, but should not be the rule. Not on behalf o...

Hi woosy,

Problem 1: You need to find the source of this problem for to stop it. Perhaps you should shut down DS Server once a week.
Problem 2: This is a timeout problem when server hung. This item is already often discussed in this forum. Use the search function of the forum.

Hi Bapu,

rules cannot be given. Even with 4 Mio. records there are scenarios to prefer OCI over Hash and vice versa. Only rules of thumb can be given.

Besides that you can icrease performance of Hash-Files by choosing an more optimal Hash-File-Type.

First use the the num-Function to check if the value is realy a Number and the isNull-Function to check if a value is coming. Thereafter you can take the string as number, without an conversion. Sometimes you have 0000-strings before the number therefore we add 0. IF num(FIELD)=1 THEN IF IsNull(FIEL...
