I just want to know the possible value of APT_DECIMAL_INTERM_ROUND_MODE, not precision or scale. Since the default value is round_inf, it is hard for me to guess other possible value.

Would anyone can help ? Thanks a lot.

:lol: I am not expecting someone here to fix the bug, just want to tell varsha I also encounter this bug. So which part of "engineering has replicated" (it's a bug), "it will be fixed in a future release" and "will get back to you" is unclear? Given that it's a known bu...

Ray,

For "APT_DECIMAL_INTERM_ROUND_MODE", the book said "Specifies the default rounding mode for any decimal intermediate variables required in calculations. The default is round_inf. "

The default is round_inf, but how can I know other possible value ?

Regards,
Benny.lbs

Saravanan,

I also can not find the environment variables in DS Administrator. They are the User defined variables ?

How can you find the information about the APT variables, what 's the possible value ? any doc can be refered ?

Suresh, you can call server routines in PE, however, if you want to run the routines in parallel, you 'd better follow vmcburney 's suggestion. Vmcburney, I am interested in the item you have mentioned, say "rewrite your basic routines as C++ build ops". Can you post some simple sample for...

I have tried Lance 's suggestion before, it works well. However, the performance is not good while the incoming data become larger. But anyway, it is one of the solution. One way to do this would be: 1. Read each row as a single column. 2. Process each row through a custom routine which a. use count...

Saravanan, you mean the error message will occur while exporting the job? But in my case, there is no error message while exporting. However, when I open the .dsx file with Notepad, something like your message coded in the dsx file. Hi, We had the same problem in 7.1. You should restart the whole se...

Job Export Command

Is there any alternative to export a single job rather than the whole project ? I mean NOT to use DataStage Manager panel, is there any .exe file can be used ? As I know, the following exe file can be used to export the whole project, but it isn't what I want. C:\Program Files\Ascential\DataStage\ds...

Saravanan, thank you for you reply. I am using PX 7.1 Hi, What version of PX are you using? Your job will not get successfully exported when one of the process is not released from the memory (Hope this problem resolved the latest release in DS EE). The workaround way is to export the job to restart...
