Hi,

This happened to us last week when our tmp directory filled up. So, you might check to see if it or any other file systems are full.

If the RT_LOGnnn hashed file has become corrupted (for example by attempting to exceed 2GB or file system full), you will continue to get this error until the log is cleared or repaired.

Although one can go into the "insides" of DataStage to solve this, I would just do a "save job as" from the designer, delete the original and rename the copy back to that of the original.

You do not have to clear log for ALL jobs. This is only for the jobs whose log has exceeded the 2GB capacity limit.

To clear all job logs, search for the post from Ray with the command.
