We are in the process of installing ISALite in our IIS to ensure the health check of the servers. I would like to understand more whether this ISALite collects information about UVConfig parameters and Project level environment variable configurations? Can someone throw some light on this? Thanks El...

Thanks for your recommendation.

Source file size is 10GB in size and 8 to 8.5 GB is being sorted once initial filter filters 1.5 to 2GB data.

Restrict Memory Buffer option is set to 50MB as of now.

Let me try this option to see the impact in sorting and share the results soon.

Yes. We are facing some slow performance while doing Sort operation in the job.

We are reviewing all avenues to improve the performance. While reviewing the config file, it was identified such config and thought of getting expertise thoughts on this.

Thanks Ray for your response on this.

Though 4 nodes are configured, all four of them are in the same SAN.

Is it good to configure scratch area in all four nodes? Instead of 2 nodes?

All of your expertise advise is highly appreciated.

It is reproducible. UVConfig parameters are verified in both servers and there is no change found between these two servers.

Any other suggestions!

Thank you all for your responses. Yes. The conversion did not work when parameter is used in the conversion in the modify stage. Parameter was used in the previous stage to create a column and that column was used in the modify stage and it works. I will mark this problem as resolved. Regards Elavenil

Yes Craig. That is what i am currently doing and that is good as well as it avoids one step, which is placing the job activity and assign the job. :)

Could see only categories not the jobs in those category. Problem ticket has been raised to Vendor.

I am just wondering this is due to Windows XP service pack (DS Client was installed in Windows XP SP2 OS)!!.
