HI There,

My jobs are running fine but my sequence get aborted with the following error can any one help me please.

Job control process (pid 22138) has failed


From previous run
DataStage Job 6 Phantom 22138
Program "DSD.RUN": Line 749, Variable "FIRST.LINE" previously undefined. Empty string used.
Abnormal termination of DataStage.
Fault type is 8. Layer type is BASIC run machine.
Fault occurred in BASIC program DSD.Init at address 76.
Floating point exception
CRITICAL ERROR! Notify the system administrator.

Did this happen only once or is it reliably repeatable?

That is a strange error indeed. Does this happen every time or just once? If you reset/compile all your jobs and sequence jobs and perhaps also clean up your logs you might be able to get rid of this error - I took a quick look at my DSD.RUN code and, while I don't have the same location for line 749 it seems as if this variable is set from values read in from the logfile.

From where we can see the DSD.RUN code?

You can't. This is the internal program used to initiate the run of DataStage jobs. It is IBM Intellectual Property.

Therefore you need to involve your official support provider. Most bugs in DSD.RUN involve them sending you a patch consisting of a new version of (the executable of) DSD.RUN.
