In what scenario can we not use a hash file
Hash files cannot be used to store data to provide a primary data stream. A data generating stage such as a Sequential File stage, or a database stage or ODBC stage can be used to generate a primary data stream

Still confused....
If you're trying to say that a hashed file can't be an input to a job, then that's false. As for scenarios when you couldn't use one, it's a rather too open-ended question/discussion, rather than a specific ask.

While the first statement is true about 'duplicates', the second is not necessarily true and the third is false.
Asking for a scenario when one cannot use a hashed file is a little broad, like asking when one couldn't use a screwdriver. Use the tool that's appropriate for the task, whether it's a screwdriver or a wrench or whatever.

A Hashed File is the mechanism by which database tables in the UniVerse database (and therefore in the DataStage Engine database) are implemented. You can do anything with a hashed file that you can do with any other database table stage, and a couple more things as well.
It's "hashed", not "hash".
