Can anyone gimme a brief description about exception handling capabilities within datastage parallel extender and what all have you faced so far in your projects and how did you overcome them.
Appreciate your responses. Thanks

It really depends on what you are looking for. Are there any specific situation you wish to find answers for? We could easily answer those type of questions for you.

For general purposes, you are welcome to read the DataStage Parallel Job Guide PDF file which comes with your installation of DataStage.

I am looking for answering the interview with a supportive lecture on the same.
Please let me know your views.
thanks!

That's getting very close to the realm of hiring consulting services!

This forum, by and large, is for sharing answers to specific questions. Answering general questions ties up a lot of time which, particularly to self-employed consultants, means money. Developing training materials ties up even more time.

Do as T42 suggests; work through the manual (it's not a bad exposition, particularly Chapter 2) then post some specific questions. You might also profitable read on-line help or manuals about exception handling in job sequences.

Here is the basic stuff:

1) Use reject link in transformer, lookup stages to capture missing data
2) Use APT_DUMP_SCORE to get details
3) Read the OSH script to understand
4) Read log files to see what errors/warnings reported
5) When you gain experience, you can write custom DSRoutine to capture all the info

PS: If you use DS version 6.0 or less , bugs & null are the major exception handling tasks.
