Hi All

i ma getting the following error after I reset the abnormal termination in one of the job

DataStage Job 1062 Phantom 12580
jobnotify: Unknown error 911
DataStage Phantom Finished.


DataStage Job 1062 Phantom 12585
Abnormal termination of DataStage.
Fault type is 11. Layer type is BASIC run machine.
Fault occurred in BASIC program DSP.Open at address 574.

jOB DESIGN IS STRAIGHT FORWARD.
db-tx-db

Could anyone please shed light on this issue?

Thanks

First bit of light shedding should come from a forum search. For example, I got 40 hits when I did an exact search for "Fault type is 11", something out there should help.

FYI - The "Fault types" are the same as UNIX signals, so 11 is SIGSEGV or a Segmentation Violation:

Hi

Thanks for the reply. i searched the forums. But the other threads were different from my error.
We are moving to new server. We face this issue only in 3 of 2500 jobs.

So I am eager to know that whether this can happen across the project in the future.

Thanks

Yes it can. A segmentation violation can occur for many causes, most of which your search would have revealed. If any of these causes occurs in future (for example an attempt to load 15 characters into a Char(12) field) then you will get a segmentation violation.

Thanks for the reply.

What is VLIST. and how it can be implemented in my scenario as

Thanks

Wherever you found it should have included some information about its use, I would think.

VLIST is a diagnostic tool for working with DataStage BASIC code. There is no way to "implement it in your scenario".
