So, what's the max length of a job name and what's the difference between character and display length? As a default, the DataStage server repository is shipped allowing a maximum key size of 768 characters; this is defined by the MAXKEYSIZE tunable. As the job name is used to create keys for other...

if [ $CB = "PASS" ] then cp ${HOME_DIR}/${PROJ_NAME}/${CATEGORY}/seq/<filenameA1> ${HOME_DIR}/${PROJ_NAME}/${CATEGORY}/seq/<filenameA2> fi if [ $PT = "PASS" ] then cp ${HOME_DIR}/${PROJ_NAME}/${CATEGORY}/seq/<filenameB1> ${HOME_DIR}/${PROJ_NAME}/${CATEGORY}/seq/<filenameB2> fi T...

Make sure you have root or super-user privileges, then rerun the shutdown script; i.e. uv -admin -stop. This should bring all the engine components down. The message you got earlier, complaining about a segment that cannot be removed, is due to a piece of code in the shutdown script that does not ev...

Actually, it's also a 32-bit app on Tru64. I do believe that all the platforms (except Linux at present) support 64-bit files though...

Forgot about your Type 25 (Btree) file query. This file type is NOT a Binary Tree as many would believe. Rather, is is an N-way Branch Tree, consisting of internal and terminating nodes. Internal nodes contain up to 383 pointers to other (internal or terminating ) nodes. A terminating node contains ...

Actually, there IS a relationship between GROUP.SIZE and LARGE.RECORD size during the CREATE.FILE process. LARGE.RECORD can be no larger than GROUP.SIZE minus HeaderSize (12 bytes within 32bit files, 20 bytes with 64bit files), thus when you specify 9999, you actually get 2036 byes (assumming groups...

Uh yep. I wrote and maintained a significant portion of the server engine over the past 13 yrs and have worked with it since it's "Vmark" days....

A file type is specified as an integer in the range 2 through 18. Each file type defines a particular algorithm applied to the (significant chars of the) primary key of each record to determine the group into which the record/data is written. Type and Usage: 2 Static Modulo. Hashed. Wholly numeric a...

While I can "appreciate" the lovely formatting of this command, I don't want it. What can be done, Oh rich and powerful UNIX/DataStage Guroos? You could also just grab the project path via a unix utility included with the DSEngine, i.e: $DSHOME/bin/UVread -f11 $DSHOME/UV.ACCOUNT {PROJECTN...
