Naming conventions

[PrasannaBhat]

Hi,
Where can I get detailed information on naming conventions that must be followed?

Please let me know if there is any document or any link that I can refer.


Thanks in advance

Welcome aboard. :D

Each enterprise establishes its own naming conventions. You need to find out from whoever is employing you what they are.

Some practitioners have their own, which they tend to use on "greenfields" engagements and when their client appears not to have any conventions in place.

Check with your employer

I am new to this tool,

For any Data Stage job can we have dash(-), underscore
(_) to classify it?

Welcome aboard.

Job names must begin with a letter and consist of alpha-numerics and underscores only.

While naming a DataStage Job, you can not use any other special characters other than Underscore(_).

Thus, you can have Underscore(_) to classify your Jobs.

Naming standards(conventions) are not common for all the datastage clients. Naming standards(conventions) differs from one client to another client.

Datastage job name should start with alphabet and can have alpha-numeric and also a special symbol underscore(_)

Krisna - those aren't naming conventions, but limitations from the product on what characters jobs can contain.

Hi,

I agree, I mean to say that when we are using naming conventions also we have to follow the above mentioned limitations.
