I am UNABLE to see the jobs in Repository Pallette..
Even when i open the Director,its not displaying any jobs..

strange problem.. :(

I never faced such a type of problem before..


Looking forward for your reply...

I've seen that happen if you are not alone in the Project. Are there any other users or processes accessing that Project? You may need to kill off any 'leftovers' from other folks and try it again.

It happens this way when any of the DataStage Jobs are open in Designer during the REINDEXing process. Make sure that none of the jobs are opened (locked status) before executing this command. You can execute this command once again after making sure that none of the jobs are on locked state.

Do you have backup of your projects?

It's probably OK, and you are likely to recover if you DS.REINDEX ALL when no-one else is using the project.

Exactly. As I tried to say earlier on, all it takes is one stray connection or lock to have a REINDEX make a Project look empty. Been there, done that. :wink:

Try again. Use LIST.READU to ensure there are no stray locks on your objects in the repository before you do so and UNLOCK any that still remain. A search of the forum will turn up syntax and examples of using both.
