Sure, just don't be writing to the hash file at the same time other jobs are accessing it expecting to the find that data. If it's a static hash file, you can have as many jobs share it as you want.

Hi,
How about using the properties tab of the job and check the: enable hashed file chache sharing.
this should load the file to memory once instead of multiple times/

Shared hashed files require a reconfiguration of DataStage. For details see dsdskche.pdf in the DataStage manuals.
