DSXchange

HI.
I am interested in enhancing the tracability of the job. How do i do it. i know we can do it for the whole server in the admin, but how do we do it for single DS job or a Sequence.

thanks

what kind of traceability are you talking about? Can you be specific?

He was talking about the 'Server side tracing' enabling on the Datastage administrator.
I guess there is no option to do it at the job/sequencer level.

Parallel jobs can be compiled in trace mode, in which case all column values on all links are traced using Peek events in the log (hint: don't run very many rows!).

Active stages in server jobs can be traced via the Tracing tab on the Job Run Options dialog when submitting a job run request. There are four tracing options; the first three create a trace record in &PH& directory in the project, the fourth (statistics) creates a log entry.

Don't enable server side tracing unless support asks you to. It creates huge trace files (in &COMO& directory in the project) and degrades performance (e.g. throughput and client response times) noticeably.
