Job properties

Post by Satwika »

Hi Everyone :) ,

I have control job which executes the sequence of jobs.
We have 'job control' tab in job properties. Can I declare the sequence of jobs here to execute successfully. Can we have options to control the job here. What's the difference in executing the jobs in jobcontrol instead in the job (Transformer). Is there any performace issue exists. Please let me know about this parameter. :idea: Thanks in Advance.

(I'm new to datastage exploring the things in DS. )

Job control is the old way of doing it. You end up adding source code to run jobs. You can edit this code using DataStage API functions. However, it is NOT an alternative to a job design, it is completely separate from the code you might place in a Transformer stage. On that basis, your question about performance is moot.
