Datastage7.5 on Windows Platform

Post by iamnagus »

Hi!

I need some information here.

Is Datastage Enterprise Editions(latest versions like 7.1,7.5.1A, 7.5.2) runs on Windows OS? (please specify windows flavours like 2000 server, XP, Professional on which DS would run)

If any one have time, please provide information for configuration details on Windows environment.

Thanks & Regards,
iamnagus

it can be installed on Windows XP professional ( not home), windows 2000.
The parallel jobs cannnot be run on Windows OS except for version 7.5.2.

Standard windows configuration is ok for it. You need NTFS filesystem on your Windows PC. 256+ Mb RAM.

Cheers

The only version of DataStage for Windows that will run parallel jobs is 7.5x2, at least until version 8.0 is released.

7.5x2 is NOT the same as 7.5.2. Version 7.5.2 will not permit execution of parallel jobs on a Windows platform.
