DSXchange

Hi Everybody,

I am taking data from Sybase and loading the same in flatfile.
For all the columns which are of type float, I am not getting the same value in the target (my target type is also float)
I have changed the target datatype to varchar,decimal etc., but i am not getting the result what i want.

Eg) if the source value is 3500000 , I should get the same.
But I am getting values like 3.5e+06.
If i use decimal (,), I am getting 03500000.00.

I am using PX. Do help me out on this.

cheers,
Gopal

I have good experience in datawarehousing but very new to datastage. I have created a job sequence and one parameter file which will have all parameters needed for all jobs. I have 3 jobs inside the sequence and all three have parameters (in the job as well). When i run the sequence it is aborting at the first job itself. Why is that so ?


kindly throw some light on that.

Thanks

Gopal

Please go into the Director and look at the log file for the job that fails. Post back the error and we may be able to figure it out

Hi,

This is what i got in the log.


CopyOfPrice_Seq..JobControl (@Coordinator): Summary of sequence run
11:42:32: Sequence started
11:42:32: Set_Parameters (ROUTINE DSU.UICISetJobParamsFromFile) started

Is there any detail to this log and did this log come from the sequencer job or the actual job that ran. If this is just the sequencer then look at the log for the actual job that the sequencer called. More detail will be found there

gopal,

the log is telling you that your CopyOfFXRate_Extraction has aborted. Open up the log details for this job look at the error messages. If they don't make sense, post them in this thread and someone will assist you.

As Arnd said, you have looked at the log for the controller. You now need to look at the log for the controlled job, CopyOfFXRate_Extraction. There will likely be a number of warnings; the first of these is the most important one. Also check the Fatal message (the one with the red icon); but don't post it if the reason for aborting was that the limit of 50 warnings had been reached.
