Yes, looks like a bug - the "$" symbol prefix isn't accepted by the stage compiler. I tried using one in the stage variables as well and it didn't work. Yeah it appears that this is a bug with Prallel transformer only. Since we are even able to do this thing in Basic Transformer. Also we ...

dsusr, you won't be getting any userful advice unless you actually tell us what the compiler error is. Hi ArndW, I didnt specify the error for the first time since i thought this is a problem with PX. PFB the compilation error:- Output from transformer compilation follows: ##I TFCN 000001 16:54:25(...

Hi All, We have defined one environment variable for our project. But when we are assigning that environment variable to one of the column in the transformer it is giving a compilation error. But if we do the same thing in server job then it is working fine. Can someone tell that is this the problem...

Is anyone having any idea what this APT_Communicator mean. Also is there any documentation for setting up an MPP system.

Thanks

Hi, Yes I have installed datastage on both the servers at same location. Also I have tested rsh on both the nodes by giving the command rsh server1name uptime & rsh server2name uptime and both are giving correct result. My configuration file is as follows:- { node "node1" { fastname &q...

Hi, I have modified the configuration file and have added one node that signifies the second server in that configuration file. But when I am running my job i am getting the following error:- main_program: The section leader on <server2> died main_program: **** Parallel startup failed **** This is u...

Hi All, We are having 3 different Linux servers and each server is having 4 CPUs. All these servers have DataStage PX installed on them. I want to connect all these servers and need to use them for Parallel processing. From the manager guide i got that to prepare DataStage to work on MPP system we j...

osh is the name of a shell, just like sh, csh, ksh. You can invoke it from UNIX, therefore you can invoke it from a Wrapper stage. Hi Ray, I have tried invoking the shell by writing the following command in one file:- osh "transform -flag run -dir /home/dsadm/testDS/OshTestSal -name trafile.so...

You could possibly invoke it using a Wrapper stage. The important thing is to handle stdin and stdout properly. Hi Ray, I have tried using the wrapper stage but the problem with wrapper stage is that it can take only unix commands and also it will run with the default sheel of server and not with o...

[quote="BCAPP"] Also I tried using the date_from_string(string) function which converts the string to a date representation. I gave the below specification: LEAD_START_DATE=date_from_string(LEAD_START_DATE) The job compiled and ran successfully but the value of the field is coming out to b...

Hi All, Is there any way to give the output of Osh script to DataStage job without creating a persistent dataset i.e. without writing the data to the disk. Or Is there any way to call the Osh script from the DataStage job. Nestr, It is true that we can implement the same ogic through xml only but th...

What osh functionality are you trying to use that you cannot acheive using the DataStage GUI to create a job? Hi Eric, Our requirement is to dynamically create a transformation at runtime. For example there can be n different formats of file which I have to map to fixed output format. We will get t...

Of course it's possible. But there's no point. Hi Ray, Yes there is no point in using DS job and we could have done the processing in osh script only but we are just trying to incorporate that functionality in osh that we are not able to implement in DS job. So the use of DataStage job along the os...

Hi All, Although osh is aframework on which DataStage PX runs but is there any way by which we can call the osh script from the DataStage job. My requirement is first to do the processing in osh script and give the output of that orchestrate script to a DS job but there is a constraint that we canno...

Hi Ray/Eric,

Thanks, noww my orchestrate script is working fine after installing the gdb.
Problem was coming since the transform operator was requiring that debugger while compilation.
