Yes, I agree do not play with the RT_ files. I would assure there are no orphaned locks and all PIDs are killed. After that I would DS.REINDEX ALL. The I would try deleting.

You find the APT_CONFIG_FILE in one of two places:

1. Go to Manager go to Tools | Configurations and there they are....

2. Go to cd $DSHOME, up one cd../Configurations and there they are where you can cat or vi them...

I agree with others that unlocking Jobs and killing processes can cause issues so be aware and careful. In all cases make sure the impacted User gets out all together and unlock by UserID. But to unlock Jobs you can: 1. In DataStage Administrator there is a process thats defined in DSXChange already...

All the responses have said enough. Never use absolute pathing but rather relative pathing by using .ini, .par or .config files.

You need VisualAge C++ 5.0.2.0 for DataStage 7.1.....VisualAge C++ 6.0 for 7.1r2 and 7.5A.....Note: You need C++ and all its load libs...The runtime version only will not work...

Hey, I just tied to help concerning overriding and clearing a large Log file which I thought was asked....and I actually do not agree that this is a bad practice....but its an idea ....best of luck

Server shared containers run in serial but if connected to other stages outside of the shared container will run in parallel as designed. Thats about it...

Using the DataStage Administrator, select the project and push the COMMAND button to bring up the command window. After that, enter the following command to find the job number. Note, the job name is case sensitive. LIST DS_JOBS WITH NAME="yourJobName" Look at the output and note the job n...

All DataStage developers typically are a member of the GID (Group ID) of dsadm....and they may have a sub-group within to categorize them.... So for a Project you would set the permissions to be one GID and the second Project to be another GID....But Jobs within a project is difficult since permissi...

Yes, I have come across the issue and yes I give credit to everyone else who pointed this out just like you could have done....congratulations to all and never meant to steal

DataStage 7.0.1, 7.1 and 7.5 all only support 5.2...

Your dsenv file (in the DSEngine) is not properly setup to match your environment. It's telling you it can't find the client libraries (e.g., Oracle maybe). Double-check how your Environment variables are defined in dsenv (especially the SHARED LIBRARY PATH) and correct them to match this server. St...
