Hash file stage-Active or passive stage?

[sumesh.abraham]

Hi All,

Whether hash file is an active stage or passive stage?. My understanding says active stages are stages which perform processing tasks whereas passive stages do not do processing tasks and just offer services to the active stages. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Sumesh

Hash file is a Passive stage..

Actives stages, such as the Transformer and Aggregator perform processing tasks, while passive stages, such as Sequential file stage, hash file stage and ODBC stage, are reading or writing data sources and provide services to the active stages.

Hope this clarifies your query !!!
