Hi,
I am facing a strange issue.
After restarting the Datastage services in the server, I found that the order in which I have arranged the column in DS Transformer seems to have changed. Note sure how many days the updates are getting backdated.
One day before the services restart, I had changed the column order for 3 columns by moving them as the last 3 columns in transformer. These columns were in the middle earlier. Now after restart, those columns were again gone back to the middle.
Similarly, I had created a stage variable as the last one. Then I changed its order to first one. After restart this stage variable has taken its old position.
I am sure, I had saved these jobs, compiled and executed before the services restart.
These are services which got restarted
DataStage Multi-Client Manager Service (ASCLCSSrv)
DataStage Telnet Service (dstelnet)
IBM WebSphere Application Server V7.0 - <Machine name>
Not sure If I am missing something here. Please guide

In one of the scenarios, I am writing the transformer output to a Sequential file which I am using to load in the another Database, in that case order does matter.
In the case of stage variables, this one is a calculated one which derives its values from some of the following stage variables. So it has to be placed after those (At the end)

Re: Coloumn order changes after restarting DS Services
Me... not sure at all. There's no way for them to revert back to a state before your change unless you didn't actually save them.sreesuku2 wrote:I am sure, I had saved these jobs, compiled and executed before the services restart.
