Hi,
What is the version of DataStage you use?
If not in pallet, try to check in customize pallet.
Right click-> Customizaiton-> Customize->Processing --> Merge.

I guess its a plugin, check in DataStage CD as well.

HI,

In server Editon, you can do a lookup even through a Transformer stage to acheive join of two files.

Code: Select all

In server Editon, you can do a lookup even through a Transformer stage to acheive join of two files. 
I guess we can just do a lookup using a transformer but join is different with that of a lookup

Yes true. I never said both are same.
But you can still acheive the output of join through lookup (Inner, Leftouter, Right outer). The only constraint in lookup would be the lookup memory utilized during the process.

Hi,

This could be of help:

One lookup each for satisfying each join condition.
There for suppose if you have 3 sources then you need to do use 2 lookups and 1 source. 2 lookups can be done using one transformer or
2 transformer depending on the logic.
