Good afternoon

I need your help please:

Let me describe briefly the scenario to understand better my concern:

In a Datastage application there are 1 sequential job (controlling job) and about 5 parallel jobs named p1, p2.. to p5.

The dataflow for execution is this: sqn1 - p1 -p2 -p3 -p4- p5 - sqn ends

If parallel job named p4 failed but the parallel jobs 1, 2 and 3 succeed

Lets suppose that i found out the cause of the failure of job 4, the question is: In order to avoid to start over again the whole process because takes much time, the job p4 can be run and skip the 3 succeed jobs and continue the execution according to dataflow ?

If so, parallel jobs (4 and 5) have to be run from the sequential job or each parallel has to be run itself indepently


Ill appreciate your help

Go to the job properties of your sequence job and in the general tab

select the box which says:-Add check points so that sequence is restartable on failure.


Also just run it as it is with out compiling the sequence, this will start at job 4.
