DSXchange

Hmmm!

I did not know that !!, even I was not involved in any license deals with Asential...for sure the company that I worked with is not aware of such what you called "violation" neither do I !!




Thanks for your advice..

We have Sun Solaris 9 working on 8 CPUs, this platform is running with many applications and one of them is Ascential Datstage 7.5.recently, we realized that the CPUs are 0% idle in many different hours per day ,so we decided to upgrade. once we did that , the DS starts to log a warning messages say...

Kirtikumar,

I have a follow up question (if you dont mind).

what sort of C++ compiler do you have, and have you tried GCC before?

All, I am going to install gcc latest version ( I think 3.4.2/3) in order to test how could we use it for PX jobs. does any one has Good/Bad experience , and only practical experience ( I got dozens of theories about using free/ proprietary c++ compilers) that could help me to speed up or buy/no-buy...

I think using approach mentioned by Sainath.Srinivasan is best with performance point of view. Did you mentioned performance ! <--- this is my baby well well, we got more than one option here, but which one is the highest performance? <-- this what I am looking for I believe such performance issues...

....... Most folks, however, demand instant gratification, and resort to an immediate assumption that it's not going to work, then reach immediately for a larger hammer ( kill -9 ), then wonder why they have to clean up locks,...... Yah, larger hammer :twisted: I did it, with the help of biggest ha...

Sleep and Nap uses the computer cycles to calculate the time. You can trace unix sleep. If you intend to kill or release process, you will need to have access to something like DS.TOOLS, dssh etc, access to dsadm user and also good knowledge of who is doing what in the system. It is not recommended...

You can do the following: Wait-for-file for 60 mins -> if found then exit else continue That is better idea :shock:, using SLEEP is bugging me , do you believe that sleeping 3600 seconds takes less than 20 minutes sometimes, and sometimes took unpredictable times periods, it is realy weird behaviou...

You've just discovered why it's not best practice to use long periods of SLEEP. Re-code the job so that it wakes up occasionally to determine whether any signals or other notifications have been received. Yes, I will be in trouble if I am using long periods of Sleep. But, this is the only way I can...

Set the next job in the sequence to 'Not Compiled' status and create the seq file so the 'wait-for-file' becomes successful and fail in the next event causing the seq to abort by itself. Yes ,what you said is true, but since the job is SLEEPING ( using sleep command) the 60 hours will completed eve...

Try to avoid the kill -9 whenever possible so that you don't have locks lying around. You should be able to find your process in ps -ef; if not then it might be really gone and all you have to do is reset the the process flags in the Administrator. resetting the process flag is something new to me ...

Hi, I am wondering how to "force kill" a running job? I ran a job that gets in loops untill it found the killing tag ( using waitforfile function), the problem is that each time the loop started it waits for X number of seconds, by mistake the code is configured to run 60 hours!!! Err, I c...

we had many issues while we tried to load arabic from IBM mainframe to Oracle under UNIX platform. I think: seeing '?' means the DS job did wrong NLS mapping, where garbage characters means either you got NLS mapping issue or fortunately viewing issues ( you GUI font is not arabic nor any arabic sup...

my personal experience. the company I 've worked in has many CDR types, some were ANSI,BINARY (ugly ones :evil: ), and some were ASN.1 (uglyest :twisted: ).. So how we did load them to Oracle DB? we have build a C++ code, where each switch has a unique library/headers that read and convert it to CVS...
