This issue has been identified as a VAS issue where few connections are failing. The user id on old server was a local id where as on new server it is an Active Directory id.

Here is some more info :

The DBA has informed us that the Metastage process query is holding a lock on the table when job runs. Any idea what this is about?

Query holding lock :

select Computer, SoftwareProduct, DataStore, DataSchema from MetaStage_Loc_Info

Figured it out. The DB2 connector stage, which is my source for data, is also the source of this issue.

Note, it does not do this for every value in the column:!: Very selective! :evil:

I used ODBC connector in its placed and now I am good to go!

Thanks.

Hi, I have a CDC job which is triggering an update when there is no change at all. I have made sure that I am comparing apples to apples and even trim for ascii nulls for char fields. Checked the forum, closest match : http://www.dsxchange.com/viewtopic.php?t=133411&highlight=change+capture+stag...

Its a simple tab delimited file read and write to FTP stage.

I did use a workaround of converting the date to VARCHAR 10 in target. But just wanted to know why its doing that because some other similar job which runs fine with date.

Use Trim(String,"-")

This will reduce all multiple occurrences of dashes in string to one.

FTPPX Stage converting Dates to number on transfer

Any idea why the FTP PX stage would convert dates to a number format on transfer? The file on the source side is generated in Datastage and a view on UNIX shows the date formats to be correct. Any help will be appreciated.

No special FTP parameters specified.

Thanks.
