i. When you are talking to huge tables, try to INDEX it properly while doing a SELECT. Build and use proper indexes on your 40-70m records table.
ii. Not pretty sure, but Hash partitioning may help you in this scenario..

Raj,

Perhaps your database user lacks SELECT privilege on the system tables. Check with your DBA.

Sushil,

Can u post the Error/Warning messages that were thrown?

Hi Amar, First, you can try with SEARCH mechanism in this site. I kill 90% of the my queries looking at already posted topics. Second, you can use DB2 stage (preferably, and ODBC optionally) to point to a DB2 table. You need to have all the info required to connect to the database with proper author...

Vincent,

There can be reasons - like in our case, we have our target DB non-partitioned (it's DB2). We cannot use DB2 EE stage unless the database it is pointing to is partitioned. And that's what has been told by IBM support.

Hi Kumar: The cycle - You design in the designer. A Osh code will be generated. It can be compiled using compiler, it does while you compile before you run your job. And produces an executable. I am bit confused here. You said OSH code will be generated when you design the job and then it can be com...

Hi, We came across a situation where using DRS is advantageous over native stage for DB2. We are implementing NLS in one of our projects. Our source data come from AS/400 systems. In the source tables we have multi-lingual data across columns. DRS stage supports NLS at column level whereas DB2 stage...
