Jobs Not Opening Prpoerly
Hi all
I recently joined a new organization. we have 2600 jobs in a single project(many of them are unused). When I am trying to look into a sequence like double clicking a routine activity stage, its neither opening nor the job is hanging in other words it is doing nothing. Even when I am right clicking the routineactivity stage and click on propertie, then also I cant do anything. We donot have an admin right now. What I am thinking is re-indexing the project, but before doing that I would like to have some feedback from the wise guys. Any help is appreciated.

Rather than reindex, why not create a set of projects, export subsets of the big project and deploy into the new projects. Instead of having 2600 jobs in one project, look to manage this better.

What you're getting is not really a hang, it's impatience on your part. DataStage has to populate a drop-down list of all job names. At the same time it gathers information about the parameters of each, so as to be ready to load the grid when you select a job. Inefficient? Maybe, but that's how it works.
More efficient is to drag the actual job from the Repository into the job sequence - that way there's no issue with populating the drop-down list.

Re: Jobs Not Opening Prpoerly
See if you can open any stage in a server job. If the problem is only with jobs/routines properties in a sequencer that it could be because of Service Pack 2.I faced the same problem some time back. I am using Server Edition 7.5 and after Service Pack 2 was installed on my machine, I could nt open properties of jobs/routines in a sequencer,neither did DS hung because of that, and I was able to open properties of all the stages in all the server jobs.
The problem was solved after I installed a patch provided by my support group.

. I didnt say its hanging ray. I am saying its not doing anything after I double clicked the Job activity or routine activity stage. Its not even my impatience because I am waiting for 4-5 mins for the properties to appear.What you're getting is not really a hang, it's impatience on your part.
dsscholar, looks like my problem is same as yours. I am able to open the stages in the jobs. The problem is only with the sequences.
Thanks for your reply

That means one should limit the number of jobs in the project..kcbland wrote:Rather than reindex, why not create a set of projects, export subsets of the big project and deploy into the new projects. Instead of having 2600 jobs in one project, look to manage this better. ...
Can you please suggest the maximum number of jobs in a project ?
I would also like to learn, about the pros and cons of having jobs split across seperate projects?
Please help
