Code: Select all

awk -v x="~" -f #AwkScript# #InputFile# > #OutputFileName#

Does version 9.1 support Oracle 8 databases?

Hi All,

Does Datastage 9.1 support Oracle 8 database. Where can we find such information ? I glanced through few documents, but was not able to find the required information.

Hi Ray,

It is not necessary that I use RCP, basically I need to use a generic job which calls routine on every column. Is there any such option.

Hi You could try defining the first 500 as individual fields and then just leave the last 300 (or whatever) as an optional post-read parse. Could you tell me how we could specify " optional post-read parse ", because if I add any a field [varchar 300] after 500 bytes and then the job is dr...

Clarify something for grins - is the 500 layout a subset of the 800 or are they different? Meaning, are the first 500 the same between the two and one just carries an extra trailing 300? yes the 500 byte layout is a subset of 800 bye layout If you had something other than length to indicate the dif...

Fixed Width, variable length ascii file

Hi,

I have to read a sequential file, which could be either 500 bytes or 800 bytes (either of them). All fields are char fields.

Is there a way to implement the above in a single datastage job such as specifying 800 bytes and specifying to check new line either at 500 or 800.

Projects not available in XMETA

When I run the below query, I find only two default projects - ANALYZERPROJECT and dstage. However, we have more than these projects.

Can you please let me know I can have XMETA store the other projects ? I have OR Logging enabled through administrator (v9.1), still I am unable view the projects.

You could stage the incoming data onto a database. Write a query which joins this staging data to your DWH tables and unload only relevant data. You could add partial CDC functionality as well in your SQL query. How many millions of rows are you expecting. If your dimension tables are going to grow ...
