Hi,

I am new to this product, and I would like to debug a parallel job.When I checked with the help file it is mentioned that only server jobs can use debugger tool.Though I created a parallel job is using sequential files.
Please help me.

There is an interactive debugger for parallel jobs in the future, but it's not in the product right now. The closest you can get now is to compile in trace mode (which effectively puts a Peek stage onto every link, so you can inspect the Peek outputs to see what data are being processed). In trace mode you can also restrict execution to sequential mode and run only a small number of rows per node.
