Transformer Rejects not throwing warnings

[jtsoong]

Hi guys,

I'm running a couple of Transformers with Reject Links.

I used to have these Reject Links going to individual Sequential File stages.
When any rows went down the Reject Links they would throw a Warning-'Row Rejected' that was shown in Director and could be retrieved using DSJ.JOBSTATUS.


I decided to change these Reject Links to all go to a Link Collector before going to a Sequential File (so I only have one 'rejects' file)

However now I have done this, I no longer receive the Warning-'Row Rejected' entries in Director.

Does anyone know why this is? Is there a way to get it to set the Warnings when using a Link Collector?

(Note: to get the Link Collector to work I had to enable Job Properties -> Performance -> Enable row buffer -> Inter Process)

you can use DSGetLinkInfo

Are the links still [Reject] links?

[jtsoong]

yup they're still marked as 'REJECT LINKS' in the Transformer.

Its annoying because now i'm stuck with 3 Sequential Files with the 'Rejects' in them.. I was hoping to use that 'Link Collector' to collect all the 'Rejects' into one file...

All you are missing is the warning in the log when there are reject rows. Is that really something you believe you need? An after job routine could check for records down the final combined link and log a warning when it's greater than zero to replace that functionality.

Open a case with your official Support provider, perhaps that way it can be corrected if indeed it is a bug... or who knows, there may be a patch.
