The problem seems to be intermittent. Sometimes restarting the failed job once works fine. Sometimes it takes a few tries. In all situations, nothing else is done other than restarting the job. That leads me to believe that it is something environmental, but I don't know where to start looking.
There are also only a handful of jobs that get this error. We probably run anywhere between 500 and 2500 DataStage jobs each day, depending on the time of the month and only a handful ever get this problem.
This happened again this morning and it was at a time when there wasn't much running on our system, so I am not sure that system load is a factor (but I won't rule it out).
Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions?
Brad.
ps. I found one related topic, PX configuration Error, but I am not sure we have the same issue. This particular posting seemed to be related to directory permissions. Directory permissions would produce consistent errors, not intermittent. If the permissions are wrong, they are always wrong until fixed.
