When tsort or psort executes in sequential mode, it's called a total sort.

When tsort or psort executes in parallel mode, it's called a partition sort or a parallel sort.

When you combine a parallel sort with a sort merge collector, it's called a total sort.

Records processed by psort must be less than 32 KB in length (psort... prohibitive sort).

In the Sort stage:

The default "Sort Utility = DataStage" option leads to the tsort operator.

The "Sort Utility = Unix" option leads to the psort operator. You can find "psort -sorter unix" in the OSH script.
