Hello all,
I just modified a couple of jobs that had passed my unit test. I needed to rename a couple of links to adhere to standards. Suddenly, errors started popping up.
- At compile time, my conditional lookup constraint caused an error. DataStage did not rename the link name in the link. Server does this seemlessly.
- Again at compile time, the key value assignment in a lookup still had the old link name for the input column definition.
- At run time, a lookup file set lost it's partition setting of 'Entire', it was set to the default 'Auto'.
Has anyone else seen this sort of behaviour?

I've seen this in Server as well, but don't recall the gory details of exactly when it happens. Most of the time a link rename handles all occurances of it in the Transformer but occassionally it doesn't. It seems like constraints are the biggest place where a link rename doesn't happen. The compiler will barf and if nothing in the Transformer shows red, the first place I look for issues is in the constraints.
Perhaps some experimentation is in order...
