Can't login to Datastage

I am not able to login to datastage. It just happened a few hours ago. I was able to login and work till that time. I get the following message:

Failed to connect to host: 10.3.156.199, project: UV
(The connection was refused or the RPC daemon is not running (81016))

The disk sapce utilization was 94% when this situation was found.

Please help me what I can do.

Thanks.

SonShe, have you tried using the search facility for "the RPC daemon is not running"? I did, and found 40 results. This is a common error message when communications are down or the DataStage server is down.

u need to restart the server and then try logging in to Client.

When access to DataStage suddenly disappears, the obvious thing to do is see if everyone else is still able to connect. If so, then you've probably either unplugged your network cable or your capslock is on. Or, your IP address for the server was controlled via DHCP and it is now reassigned. Since you are logging in using IP (from your message) this might be what happened. Consider a DNS method next time.

Whenever you start DataStage you should verify that the DataStage RPC daemon (or service, if on Windows) was started. On UNIX this runs as dsrpcd, so a suitable command to determine whether it is running would be

Code: Select all

ps -ef | grep dsprcd | grep -v grep

On Windows-based servers you can simply examine the DataStage control applet in Control Panel.
