Hi,

There is a particular problem which we have encountered.
When we try to load data from

Oracle Table A(Using Oracle Enterprise Stage) To Oracle Table B(Oracle Enterprise Stage)

Using the Write Method= Load, When the column names in both the tables are same then there is no error
say
Table A Table B
a number a number
b number b number
c number c number

but if say

Table A Table B
a number d number
b number e number
c number f number

Then there is an error generated. Is it because the control file is not getting generated in the required format.
What would be possible cause as since the job aborts we do not see any ctl file or log file that is generated in the /Scratch directory.

regards,
varsha

What is your job design, I'm guessing just the two Oracle stages?

If so, you'll need something between them to map the columns. For example, to map 'a' to 'd' (etc) in your second example.

Do u mean that we need to give an alias for column a as d using a transformer and then map it to the so that it can load the table

Not an 'alias' but yes, a transformer to map the source columns to the target columns. There may be a 'better' stage for this for all I know, but that would work.

Copy stage would be the most efficient to effect the column name change.

The reason for your "problem" is that the collection of column definitions is a property of the link, not of either stage.
