Routines have disappeared

[lh3]

Hello all,

We've met strange behaviour. Few weeks ago all DataStage routines (both standard and custom) have disappeared from repository on production server. It means we can't see them in Designer nor Manager. Only case when we are able to read them is when we open sequences where are some routines included. Then we see their code. Surprisingly our project is running without any problem so I suppose this is the problem of repository. But how this could be or how this could happen that's the question.

Any idea?

Thanks

It could be a problem with indexing in the Repository; the clients use the indexes (particularly the CATEGORY index) to retrieve components for display.

At some time when there are no components open for editing in the project, use either the Administrator client Command window or a telnet session in the dssh environment to execute the command

Code: Select all

DS.REINDEX ALL

This will rebuild all the indexes in the Repository and may well render your routines visible again.

As to cause, there are many possible causes, some more likely than others, and which would take too long to canvas here.

DS.REINDEX works perfectly.

Thanks
