Thank you very much for your reply. The default values were missing for decimal columns and were manually updated in Records tab to resolve the issue. Marking this as resolved.

Thank you

Scratch space of the compute nodes, minimun 25 GB, must be a local disk, not NAS-mounted or NFS-mount. It seems like your job's scratch processing is all done on the head node. No wonder job takes longer to finish. It seems that it was a local disk before. But for better maintenance and performance...

Thanks Ray. I changed the array size to 50, 100000 but the job aborted with the same error. When I ran from our 7.5.1 environment (has Oracle Enterprise stage) , the job aborted too, however it loaded all except 4 records into the Oracle table. One column had special characters in these 4 records. I...

Re: Column order logic clarification

This is a very unusual requirement. How about asking for a schema file for every source file you get? Is it possible? If yes, I believe, you can use schema file for metadata and RCP for column propagation. If not, you do not have a set pattern (consistent) of the problem to resolve. Hence it is not ...

Re: Preserving sort order in Datastage

Thank you. I used APT_NO_SORT_INSERTION and APT_NO_SORT_OPTIMIZATION. However, it still did not work as expected. In the interest of time, I had to fall back on the last resort to make the keys available to sort and later remove it from the script. It worked fine.

Thanks

Kiran, I am not sure why you replaced the transformer. Assuming you have only one transformer with 10 columns + any constraints, 1. Make copy of the job 2. Remove the constraint and compile, if successful it means the problem is with constraint 3. Revert the copy of the job, remove 5 of the 10 colum...

What Andy suggested works perfectly. I had a similar situation in our migration from 7.5.1 to 8.7. The jobs compiled successfully in 7.5.1 but not in 8.7. I started by removing 80% of the columns and increasing it gradually until I finally found out the problem was with a transformation from null va...
