Error 11 in GCI Link initialisation.

[Vikas Jain]

Hi,

The job calls a Routine using a transformer.
It polls the database on a periodic basis- which can be as low as <1 minute.
Now,once the job is triggerd after several polling rounds, it throws error in the transformer stage saying "Error 11 in GCI Link initialisation."

Let me know y this is happening & how can it be resolved.
Thnks in advance.

No idea.

The reason we have no idea is that you have posted no detail of your job (and job sequence?) design, for example what stage types are being used, nor any detail of the routine you are invoking.

Right now your question is in the category of "my car won't start, what's wrong with it?".

More detail will allow more cogent diagnosis.

GCI (General Call Interface) is the mechanism that DataStage BASIC uses to invoke C functions. Are you sure this is a parallel job? Does it include any server job functionality?

Hey Ray,

The parallel job is using a transformer stage to call a routine which in turn takes the parameter as hardcoded in the routine and triggers other job depending upon the availabilty of a key value.
I tried increasing IPC interval and also enabling row buffer.
Still sometimes it do fail.
Is it related to buffer space avlbl, I tried with diablin the rowbuffer too, still d same issue.
pls advice.

Lose the job design.

Design it using a job sequence, which you should have done from the outset.
