Hi,

Is there any Universe query to find out Hashed file size in terms of GB.

Thanks in advance.

ANALYZE.FILE <<Hashed File Name>>
The above command will give you all sorts of info about the file, including size.

If you are unwilling to use the Administrator client:

Code: Select all

cd `cat /.dshome`
. ./dsenv
dssh
LOGTO <your project>
ANALYZE.FILE <your hashed file>

Note: this will not work for 'pathed' hashed files. Are yours account based or were they created in specific directories?

Post here as you would communicate with your professional colleagues at work. English is not everyone's first language, "Dats y" SMS / text message crappola is not appropriate here.

You can execute ANALYZE.FILE (from within a DataStage environment) in any project. You can use it from the Administrator client's Command window. You may need to use SETFILE to create a VOC pointer to a pathed hashed file.
