The first thing I would do is monitor the virtual memory usage while the job is running. It could be a simple as running out of virtual memory (ie increase the size of your page file) NT is supposed to, but does not always log a message in the system event log when it runs low on virtual memory. How...

NT Error in Event Log

(First time posting) We are doing what looks like a fairly simple extract from Unidata on an HP to an Oracle database on NT. On the NT server, we are getting the following Event Detail (Event ID 1004) several times per hour: "UniVerse error: Unhandled Exception raised at address 0x78001799: Acc...

Brad The true use of stored procedures within DataStage ODBC stage is to extract data from an ODBC Source or to pass a row of data to a stored procedure to be processed. So when used as an extract DS expects a result set to be returned. When used as a target it expects the stored procedure to proces...

Calling stored procedures via ODBC

I notice in the documentation that when using an ODBC stage to call a stored procedure (in our case a call to Oracle running on a DEC Alpha), that the ODBC stage does not get/receive anything back from the remote machine. Were in DS 3.1.1r3 on an NT Server, BTW. I understand there is an option to re...

Datastage Questions

As of today there is no such thing as a VB plug-in. The only supported language available for plug-in stage types is C. A manual is available from Informix called the "C Plug-In Stage Interface". (Its Ardent part number was 76-1007-DS3.6.) If nothing else, this manual might convince you th...
