No, I haven't seen anything like that. What does your job do? Did you change anything else at the same time (OS or patch level, DB version, etc.)?

Hi,
My job split rows and use a link collector before writing in a DB2 database.
I'll investigate if others changed where made with this upgrade.

If you write to a sequential file instead of DB2 does it speed up greatly? (it should, if not you do have some issue). Do other jobs that write to DB2 also show a slowdown?

Do you really need a Link Collector? In theory your job should go faster with parallel independent streams of inserts.

Hi,
I'm sorry for the delay.
I changed my job by deleting the link collector and using a pivot stage.
The job runs with the time it had in the previous version.
I'm just worried about the behavior of Datastage. A minor change shoudn't have a huge impact.
I have to change a lot of jobs , because they hang in r2 plus the solution that the support gave me works in dev but not in production.


Thanks for helping.

Any version number containing "r" is a "rapid repair fix" and has not been through full Quality Assurance testing. You should contact your support provider for a version that has been through full QA testing.

shrek7577 - it doesn't look like quite the same problem to me, this is a n extreme slowdown type of issue while what you described was quite the opposite, where the job doesn't terminate correctly.
