I would just want to know whether is the ABAP stage capable of calling a Process Chain in SAP? If not, which other stage is capable of doing this?

I am trying to trigger a ABAP program that resides on SAP using the ABAP stage. Is this possible? I am aware that the ABAP program can be created and uploaded using the ABAP stage but I am interested to know whether can it also trigger/execute existing ABAP programs. The current ABAP stage settings ...

Actually I am not focusing on the migration of the DSParam, what I had in mind is to automate the process of updating a value in DSParam monthly in order for the reflect the latest changes during the job execution every month. Has anyone done that before?

Can I also know that if we were to automate the process of updating the DSParam file, will it immediately reflect the value changes in the Administrator?

Do you have any idea of doing so?

I am curious to know does the DSParam file gets generated by every Project? Is this a requirement? What if the file does not exist in the Project folder?

The situation is there are 100 records in a file and there are 20 records that has problem but DataStage only displays the 1st problemed record and the rest are ignored.

I cannot find such environment variable that could set it to display all the warning msgs in the Director log.

Anyone can help?

The problem the warning message I've gotten is just showing one of the many records that is giving the import problem.

Is there any way besides rejecting the records? I just want to display all the warning in the Director log.

Hi all, I am getting this warning message from the Director. seqBSIS_2007,0: Import consumed only 228bytes of the record's 230 bytes (no further warnings will be generated from this partition) seqBSIS_2007,0: Import warning at record 588736. The problem is I want MORE of these warnings to pinpoint w...

Hi all, Has anyone encountered setting UTF-8 as the project default settings and whenever we use VARCHAR(UNICODE) or CHAR(UNICODE) datatype, the length of the columns created in Oracle is always multiply by 4.
