Hi,

I am getting a below error while running the job.

Data set, file set, or file "ora_Stg_Table:rd_Ora_Stg_User.v": Non-pipe (or non-virtual data set) with .v in its name

Any idea on the above error.

Although I haven't seen that error before, the message indicates that DataStage dislikes the .v suffix on text files. What happens if you use another suffix in your job, does the error message go away?
