Mr Verma
As per my opinion, there are some reason reason of the fatal error, you can not simply continue even if there is fatal error.;
e.g. if the fatal error is bcoz of some design issue, how can you expect the job still to continue all the row to process....
but you can still continue with proper handling the data at the the kind of stages you are using...
i would also like to know, if there is any way to achieve this.

While there is no method I am aware of to run a job in Server Edition the way you want, I would also like to suggest that it is not among the best practices.

There is ALWAYS a way in server jobs to run without creating fatal errors from the job design, if you are not using row buffering. I include that caveat (a) because you do not have control of the ipc mechanism and (b) because theverma seems infatuated with using the IPC stage.

Environmental fatal errors, such as inability to connect to data sources, are not part of the job design and should, of course, remain fatal errors.
