Node pools

Post by aakashahuja »

Hi,

How can I constraint a job to run on a specific node pool? I know how to do this for stages inside a job, but really wanna know how to do this for a whole job.

Cheers
Aakash

Not possible. Use a different configuration file.

Create a separate configuration file under /opt/Ascential/DataStage/Configurations directory and at job level insert the environment variable APT_CONFIG_FILE and assign the file name you have created.

job level parameter add the environment variable APT_CONFIG_FILE and change the default file name with the new file created by you under /opt/Ascential/DataStage/Configurations directory

That is "use a different configuration file", not "run the whole job in a node pool".
