That's a database question.

DataStage does not support BLOB data type.

Not so sure; I have not tested it myself, but...

A quick 11.3.1 Knowledge Center search on BLOB indicates that the Oracle Connector, Teradata Connector, DB2 / DRS all support BLOB, but not ODBC. They suggest to use the DataStage data type of LongVarBinary.
