Then how does ProfileStage store the connection information in the repository, and where does ProfileStage store the Specification/Analysis Report Database information? Although the Tables Information looks like *.TXT, I think PS needs to place them in somewhere, isn't it? However, It's just my gues...

Ray, it's good to know PSDB in DB2 is working fine with PS since we are going to use DB2 as the source. It's hard to believe PS is choked with Oracle since they all went through ODBC driver to connect to DB. Correct me if I am wrong, I thought PS utilize MDB(Access) to store PS internal DATA such as...

I know there is no problem to access the XLS like a table using ODBC, how about the flat file(CSV, fix-length,..)? Thanks fo...

That's great they put the fix in 7.5.1.A. I just heard IBM has come out with 7.5.2(Not official, but is 7.5.1.A above), this is recommended if you want this fix since this version contains a lot more fixes. Ask for your IBM representatives. As per my experience, to apply the patches doesn't take too...

Same platform should work..

Just add one more point to Ray's comment... If you export the Job Executables to another NEW SERVER that is the same platform with the OLD SERVER, the job should run as usual without having to recompile the job in NEW SERVER. Which means there is no need to install the C++ compiler in NEW SERVER tha...

Kumar,
We have to schedule the 6 instances to wait for the files arrival in a certain period, and we don't know when exatly the file will arrive. That's why we have to run them in parallel.
Thanks for your advise.
