Reusability of Shared Container

Post by victordsouza »

Hi,

Can we use the CONTAINER Stage in the case mentioned below

Case 1:
- Created a job and created a Shared Cointainer which has 10 input column and 10 output columns
- Executed the job and works fine.

Case 2:
- Created another job, reduced the input to 7 columns and reused the same container.
- Executed the job but job aborted.

Question:

Can we not use the Shared container multiple times and let the RCP(runtime column propogation) do the job of taking the runtime metadata?

Any input will help

Thanks

You can use RCP to take care of the different metadata used by or given to the shared container by different jobs.

Any columns you have specified in the shared container must exist in the input data via either RCP or specified.

What is the exact error you are getting on your abort?
