Change Data Capture gives output records when expecting zero

Hi,

CDC is giving output edits, even though there are no changes.

Database is oracle. Please advice on what could be the potential issue.

I did check the few posts in the forum, but they dint help much. Still trying to figure out.


Thanks.

Thanks Ray. Actually there is a Change data capture stage after the transformer stage, the link ordering was incorrect in that because of that I was facing the trim issue. This issue got resolved, but a new issue came up.

Thanks.

There is no pdf for sybase talking about enterprise stage, but in IBM knowledge center the enterprise stage does exist for 11.3. It would be great if you can confirm that the Sybase enterprise and other native stages for sybase are still present and can be used in 11.3 However, compared to Sybase en...

Thank you for the information.

I am not sure whether this was checked during installation or not. How do I know now, whether I have this enabled for this installation. Is there any place were I can check if Balanced optimization is enabled.



Thank you.

Optimize option

Hi,

When I open a parallel job in designer, the File -> Optimize option is not appearing.

This is DataStage 8.7. Do we need to install any patch for this.



Thanks.

Unstructured data

Hi,

Can datastage read unstructured data? When i mean unstructured it means, tweets or facebook messages.My understanding is we can read them but we will not be able to process them. Can you confirm my understanding.

Found the issue by putting a peek stage as output to oracle connector stage and rejecting the records to peek stage. But I had to change the job and put peek stage. Thought if I put the breakpoint before the oracle connector stage and debug at abort would give me the record which is actually causing...

Can debug option in 8.7 replace peek stage

Hi,

We have the debugger in DataStage 8.7. Can it be a replacement for peek stage which we generally use.
