DataStage clients invoke COM objects for communication with the server. It is somewhere within the OLE server that exposes these objects that the failure has occurred. It might be something as simple as Windows losing track of a handle, or it may be much more complex. Alas, the message itself provides no real clue.

Closing the client (or all connections to the server) and opening a new one usually corrects this fault.
