Hi,
Could you please advise which algorithm gets applied when we use CHECKSUM stage in DataStage 9.1? Is it 'Hash MD5' or anything else?

Thanks,

Docs don't specify. You should be able to tell from the output column, is it a 32 character string? That would tell you it's MD5.

Thanks Chulett,
I can see output generated by CHECKSUM is 32 character alphanumeric string.
As you suggested, I assume this is Hash MD5.

Thanks.
