Is it OK to use a unix rm statement to remove the orphan datasets in my resource disk "/cba_app/dstemp/iis_fdm/datasets/temp01" {pools ""} directories ?
I would use orchadmin rm on them, but the dataset definition files have already been deleted.

That sounds like a plan, I'll try and suppress them from the job log.
After all, its not how you feel, but how you look that counts

The variables are defined in all projects. Setting them True and False appears to be working too. It is just the messages in the &PH& directory that have me concerned. I can get all the... The variable "APT_blaa_blaa_blaa" is not in the environment. ... messages to go away simply b...

I have 3 projects (DEV, SIT & UAT) In DEV, the &PH& logs state... The variable "APT_NO_JOBMON" is not in the environment. The variable "APT_PM_PLAYER_TIMING" is not in the environment. In the other two, the &PH& log states... The variable "APT_DISABLE_COM...

Thanks for that, I shall try it out next hang... I think my "hangs" are related to my "aborts". Today I got a "PID 21174 has failed", 2 "Failure during execution of operator logic", 2 "not a runnable job" and one "other error". All jobs ran...

The DBA is a helpful chappy, open to bribery, and I expect his assistance the next hang. As for our select/update strategy, our parallel jobs select from their own staging tables, work within their own datasets, and then insert into their own partition of the datamart. I think this is fairly efficie...

That would be too simple Ray, I have a situation where a corporation use this server, and no one in particular is resoponsible for what happens... I need a crash course on SysAdmin of DS (easily said than done). I have a technique of re-compile and re-index which sorts the problem out, but it is a b...

thank you both Ken and Ray. I'll go investigate list_readu. These things happen a lot over here, and are referred to as "resource problems". Then a lot of killing goes on, followed by re-compiles and re-indexing. I am looking for more subtle ways of manageing these issues. Basically, I try...

I have a sequence, calling a sequence, calling a sequence, calling a job. For some reason, the job hangs. I've tried stopping the job via DsDirector's Stop button, and get a "stop has been sent to the server" dialog box. After a while, when nothing appeared to happen, I tried "stoppin...

OK, I've recompiled the project and reindexed it. Ran a few jobs that had been causing me problems, and they ran ok. I banked up a series of jobs and have left them running over the weekend. I shall investigae on monday. A problem is that there are other teams using the server, and I can't see what ...

Still chasing... our scratch and &PH& space is purged everyday for files older than 5 days. We have 30gig free for datasets and scratch, and 2.6 for $DSHOME (&PH&). Jobs that were recompiled and started working, have since "gotten worn out". I shall recompile the project an...

Whilst running a series of sequences, all of a sudden, a series of jobs became unrunable. Some gave a -99 "other error", some claimed the job was not compiled and others reported "not executable RT_etc" problems. Re-compiling the jobs fixed the problem. My questions are, "am...
