This topic is dead, but i have to note an observation: When you have a long running command called by the job (usually a before /After command,) and if someone sends a stop request to the job, the same error text appears ( very natural of course) ,but its also possible that something killed the proc...

Yeah like ray says,

Code: Select all

UNLOCK USER <USERNO>
should be your best option! Believe me , I've done it and it works.
Use

Code: Select all

PORT.STATUS 
and

Code: Select all

LIST.READU EVERY 
to find the offending locks/processes. It will also give you the USERNO to unlock.

When you have a client that is 'command line happy', where a script based solution, however rarely used, is considered the best, probably because it gives them a chance to show their geek ability with 'install' scripts. I Spent almost a day getting those single quotes right.:x . On the flip side , a...

All variables that will be of encrypted type will be passwords. All such variable names will have _PWD in their names, hence i probably will scan the output of the dsadmin -listenv for those user variables that end with _PWD. For Prompt string, will use the environment variable name itself for now. ...

It gives me only a list of NAME=VALUE pairs As far as testing goes: I have been able to test so far much of the entire script( creating environment variables from and env file, importi...

An Attempt to deploy a project using a shell script

I have made a vague attempt at creating a shell script to deploy a new project , along with its 'user-defined' environment variables and jobs. Is ther any better way of doing it? Apart from capturing status codes of commands and validating input arguments? This is a 'forecasted' requirement from my ...

The setting you mentioned will be used when you need the link private caching facility. More details are found in the Disk Caching Guide. Problem is , you rarely can predict the size of a hashed file that you will use.

You would use IPC to enable inter process buffering explicitly between 2 active stages. In that case in process buffering will apply to all other links where IPC is not used. If you enable inter process buffering at job level through job properties, then you dont have to add an IPC stage in the job....

In A Filter Stage- You cannot use Transform functions on a field and derive constraints based on the result.

But you could possibly use a Transformer stage constraint for almost any kind of Filter that you can set in a Filter Stage.

Is MASTER job in aborted state? Does the job have any stages?

1.A Sequencer without job activity stages occasionally fails compilation.

2.You cannot call a sub-job that has no stages from a job sequencer.

How about adding an additional layer. Call the CORBA interface, land your data in a staging file. And read that file from DataStage And you would probably use WaitForFile activity to ensure that Corba has written the data to a file on your OS filesystem. You may still face issues if you have to sen...
