Aakash, Quote from Parallel Job Developer's Guide - Sequential files, unlike most other data sources, do not have inherent column definitions, and so DataStage cannot always tell where there are extra columns that need propagating.

You can use the sparse look up provided your main stream record count is very less compared to the Reference. In a Sparse look up, an SQL query is generated for each mainstream input row to find a match in the reference. So if you have 30 million records in the reference, but only 10 records coming ...

Change the column name in one of the links to the Join Stage and also switch off RCP on both the links to the Join Stage. This should take care of your warning.

Note that if RCP is disabled at a Project level, then you wouldnt find this option at the output tab of any of the stages.

If this need to enabled at a project level, it would have to be done from the Administrator.
