LegendKiller,

no inputs until you tell us more. Does the job status in the director change from "Compiled" to something else? Is it a Px job or a Server job? Does it do anything special? Can you do a Validate on the job, or a Reset? Can you run it from the Designer?

What about if you try to compile & run from the designer? Do other jobs run in the director? Are you logged in as administrator or as another user? If you go to the project directory and it's subdirectory &PH&, delete the files therein and try to run the job in the director, do one or more files show up in this directory? If so, cat them (they are text files showing stdout of the background processes).

Is there a before job stage?

Is it a multi-instance job?

Did you try rebuilding your project index?

If you log in as the DataStage administrator and go into the designer for a New Server Job, go into the Job Control tab and put in one line of (dummy) program code "CALL DSLogWarn('I am a warning','')".

Compile this job and run it in the designer. Does anything show in the log file? You should have at least one entry in the &PH& directory.

Perhaps you do have a permissions issue, what permissions do you have the for DS_JOBS and any RT_JOB<nn> files in the project directory?

You may need to reindex your project.

There is an internal problem with your project. As Sainath suggested, a reindex might solve the problem, but since you said this is a fresh install I am guessing that something has gone awry during the installation, either of the server and/or the project. Please check your installation logs for warning or errors.

Did you try to run the job from Director or from dsjob? If dsjob, make sure that the project name is correctly cased as well as correctly spelled. Try running from Director (where you simply can't get the project name wrong!).

Hi,

Configuration of the DS server is SMP with 2 processors

Following is the config file used


{
node "node1"
{
fastname "PUNACX010.xxxxx.com"
pools ""
resource disk "/u01/app/Ascential/DataStage/Datasets" {pools ""}
resource scratchdisk "/u01/app/Ascential/DataStage/Scratch" {pools ""}
}

Server name is PUNACX010.xxxxx.com

Job design is direct reading from seq file and writing to another seq file
with copy stage in between.

when trying to validate it is throwing error
