Use an after-job subroutine ExecSH or ExecSHSilent to execute the command

Add this command to filter option in target sequential file
Code: Select all
awk ' { print } END { print "" } '

Thanks for the replies.
@Ray Before and after job commands are not in the company standards.
@Anbu, i will try this option now.
Thanks,

Hi, Have tried the option of awk
Without the awk command, iam getting the below output.
Code: Select all
Job_No;65
# 1 blank line
Sequence[1;2]
Job_no;1
With the awk command, iam getting the below output.
Code: Select all
Job_No;65
# 1 blank line
# 2nd blank line is coming
Sequence[1;2]
Job_no;1
#Blank line is coming
How to remove the 2nd blank lines, any ideas.
Thanks,

Awk command prints only one blank line at the end of your output. Verify whether your input stage is generating extra blank lines
Code: Select all
$ echo "Job_No;65
>
> Sequence[1;2]
> Job_no;1 " | awk ' { print } END { print "" } '
Job_No;65
Sequence[1;2]
Job_no;1
$

I love nonsensical standards.

How/where are you executing awk, if not as an after-job command?

You can do this in datastage also.
Add a row generator (No of Records = 1) with char columns with similar names as input and an additional column DUMMY char(1). Set null values '' for all the columns.
Add the DUMMY column char(1) to input also and put 1 in transformer.
Then funnel both these links. Use Sequence funnel with the link ordering set to 1 for the link from the row generator. The row from the input records should be 0.
sequential file properties :
format tab - null field value :null
Partioning tab : DUMMY column SortMerge "Perform sort" ticked Descending with nulls last.
This way the empty row from the row generator would be the last row processed.
