Hi guys, I'm comfortable using QualityStage RealTime in Windows and Unix, but now I need to implement it on OS/390, which is quite different. I've got no problems setting up QSRT Server and QSRT Manager's JCL. The issue is to understand how it deals with multiple concurrent requests: - How does the ...

Hi all, I do not know if this is the right place for it, but there are some intriguing questions that not rarely come to my mind. As a former Ascential employee, and very much into DataStage (still working with it nowadays and love it) myself (so, I am not the right person to talk about MetaStage), ...

Hi, I also feel that many of us immediately post a problem they feel they have, instead of performing a thorough search within the forum. Please, take sometime first and explore the forum, because there are lots of answers you can find in this forum. I can confirm that I have found lots of answers t...

Hi all, I installed DS 7.5.1A for HP-UX 11.23 (Itanium) and found out that the CFF plugin has a bug. When trying to read a file encoded in binary EBCDIC the COMP fields are read as zero. We had that working both in DS 7.1 and DS 7.5 for PA-RISC. Ascential support told me to use the PA-RISC DS 7.5 li...

Hi all, I have posted a topic here just minutes ago regarding SAP IS-U. That same customer also wants to know about data change detection in data sources. I gather this is a matter for CDC. They have Oracle. I have not found any white papers for CDC. I assume they must have in place a replication se...

Hi, We have a potential energy customer that asked about the integration between DS and SAP IS-U billing tool. Does anyone have an idea about how good this integration fits in together? My understanding is that it is acomplished through the extraction of SAP IS-U data directly. Am I correct or am I ...

Hi Pedro, It seems that the code snipet of the Clickpack CPIPToDomain routine you've posted has a wrong parameter regarding Solaris OS: DScallPerl1("sub {my $ip = pack(N,$_[0]);$host = gethostbyaddr($ip,0); return $host; }","I",Key) should be: DScallPerl1("sub {my $ip = pack...

Hi, Does anybody know about any serious issues (bugs) with DS 7.5x against a Win2K Server? I am asking this because we are considering an upgrade at a customer's site, from DS 7.1 to 7.5x because of issues regarding Job Sequencer with DS 7.1 but we do not want to relief them from a problem :D and gi...

Hi, I just have a slightly different problem than yours. When I start the Designer alone I the option Prompt for New does not appear and I am not allowed to create a new job from scratch and cannot interact with the GUI. I always have to invoke the Designer either from the Manager or from the Direct...
