Calling a Sequencer Job

Post by sumitgulati »

We have three Sequencer jobs that call several other Jobs. One of the Sequencer is the main Job from where we need to call the remaining two Sequencer Jobs. We couldn't find any Stage in DataStage that can be used to call another Sequencer Job.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Hi !
You can do it like this :
3 job sequencers.
- one main job sequencer with 2 job activities.
first job activity for your first job sequencer,
second job activity for your second job sequencer.

Hi,

Open your Main Job Sequencer and simply drag and drop the other two job sequencer you want to add in. It will work.

Thanks

The reason is really a "no brainer". A sequence is just another kind of job; one that can control another job (or more than one). There is no restriction on whether the controlled job is a regular job, a sequence, a control job (same thing) or a batch (same thing with a funny name).
