Merge Stage Error

Hi,

I am getting an error in the merge stage and the job aborts. The job is simple and I have a merge stage,xfm Stage, and Seq File Stage. There s enough disk space on the unix specified directories. It works for few records and When I process the entire file, the job aborts. I also processed that one record where it aborts and then it works fine. The Error message are:
Merge:Seek failed
Merge:Function 'put_row_to_page' Failed
Merge:Function 'construct_hash_table' Failed

Thanks in Advance

Regards
Narender Vittal

Some of these questions need to go to Ascential support. You still have limits on file sizes. ulimit on UNIX will tell you your max file size. I do not think a sequetial file can be as big as a whole fielsystem. How big are these files? What is your ulimit? What version of OS? What version of DataStage?

If the input files are not read in fixed format try that out - maybe it's a read error
