Hi All, we have a set of DS jobs which which are being used for English countries. There was a need to support Western European character set. So the Project level NLS setting was made ISO-8859-1. Now we need to use the same jobs for Multi lingual countries like Japan, Korea Taiwan etc. We want that...

Hi All, I have a server shared container which is used to process all the rejected records in the whole project. this container is also used in Paralle jobs. the whole setup was working fine till the jobs were being run individually. Now i am trying to run all the jobs from a script, but getting the...

If you have several Sequential File Stages writing into the same file in the same job, then that may lead to completely inconsistent result depeding on the partitioning selected by you.
So its better to colletc all the rejects into a funnel and then write to the file.

Hi Srikanth, The job is running fine when run independently. I am sure the problem is because of funnel, as all jobs without funnel run fine, but jobs with funnel run infinitely. the jobs that run infinitely have sequential files,tranformers and funnel and nothing else. Please let me know what may b...

Hi all, I have a Sever job, which calls several jobs -Both server and Parallel, after after reading the job names from a list and setting their parameters.

But when i try to run it from DS Director it aborts with the following message main_program: ORCHESTRATE step execution terminating due to SIGINT The job has three shared containers, with the output of one being input of second and so...

Even i am facing a similar situation. I have a set of jobs which use the output from the previous job as their input. since each job was writing to a file and the next job was reading from it I/O overhead was major concern. So to reduce the I/O Load i encapsulated complete jobs in shared continers a...
