sorry Ds! I mean to say if col1 length of 5 then null field value property like'five spaces' the reason for not using modify is it's breaking the metadata mapping & also i need to rename most of the columns.so for each and every column,i need to write a specification. anyway..thanks for your tim...

Thanks DS! I am just writing the data onto a sequential file! if i neeed to do an explicit conv then i need a transformer which i can't use! need to write the buidop code for that. so i am trying to avoid transformer. so.the final answer is if i want to write the decimal field which may have null va...

Kumar, I am just doing a direct writing into a file file should be fixed width (no delimiter required) i/p example Record 1 col1(decimal 5) = 1234 & col2varchar(4) = abcd & col3 decimal(2) = 12 record 2 col1(decimal 5) = 4568 & col2varchar(4) = Null & col3 decimal(2) = 78 record 3 co...

Modify stage - Runtime column propagation

All, We are using Modify stage to Keep a few columns of the input(Data from sequential file stage) The Sequential file input stage we are using Schema file Option to define the metadata of the input file. So there is NO metadata columns definition explicitly. In the Modify stage, we are using keep o...

How to convert Raw to String

Hi All

We do have StringtoRaw() in transformer, but not RawtoString().
Is there any way of converting RawtoString()

Diff between Server and parallel job in case or multiple CPU

Hi All Just need to get my concept cleared here. In case of server jobs in case of multiple processors, we are able to acheive parallelism by using IPC stage and partitioning using link partitioner and link collector stages. Are these stages overheads which we donot come across in PX for parallelism...

Need to know more about performance tuning

Hi all I am working on PX 7.0, 4 processors AIX system. I used 4 configuration files(1 node, 2 node, 3 node and 4 node) for a particular job one by one to see which of the files will give me best rows/sec performance boost. I was expecting the result to be best for 2 node file as it is mentioned ear...
