Unable to see instance of MultipleInstance Job in Director

Hi,

I have a multiple instance Server Job. When I trigger the Job after giving the invocation id I am not able to see the instance of the job in Director. Till yesterday whenever I triggered the job I was able to see the instance with name "JOBNAME.InvocationId". Today we compiled the job to clear all the instances but now we are not even able to view any new instance.

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem?

Thanks in advance,
-Sumit

Hi Sumit,
Could check someone unchecked/disabled (by chance) "Allow Multiple Instance" property in Job Properties General Tab.

Satish, Multiple Instance option is checked in the job properties.

One thing I forgot to mention is that the Project is Protected.

Hi All,

I have not yet been able to figure out the problem. The issue is bizarre but its happening. The job runs fine but the instance does not show up in the director. Any and all inputs would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
-Sumit

Have you activated any filters in your Director? When you start your job with an instance, does it run correctly? Do the job entries show up in the main job's log, and if so, do they contain the instance in the log text?

Thans for the reply Arnd.

There are no filters in the director. The job runs fine and the log entries show up in the main job log with the instance appended to it.
Everything else looks fine just that the instances do not show up in the director.

Thanks,

Just a thought..... but I wonder if rebuilding the repository indexes might make this problem go away?

Ensure that your datastage repository files are not missing

In your case, D_RT_STATUS file in your project directory should be present.
