Job failing in lookup Stage

What is the vloume of your lookup data ??? If it is really huge then using lookup is not advisable. Go for Joiner with a Left Outer Join option. Then lets see whether you still get this error.

Logic for one row to multiple rows

Use a Column Generator and restrict it to 1 Column value with incremental integers (1,2,3,4,5....)

Error while importing metadata

Hi,
Is it a decimal column ??? Your error message seems to be something like a value exceeding the available limit of the size in DataStage column level. Check that first.

Regards,
Ajay

Coalesce Function

You can use NullToValue() or NullToZero() in Transformer Stage or you can use NVL() at source DB Stage.

Your Choice

How to remove warning from aggregator stage

Hi,
Try using a Modify Stage to convert the Int into Decimal. This should help solve your problem.

Routine to View Data flow between two stages

Hi,
In a basic routine you can achieve this logic. You can get the number of records processed per Link in your job in the routine. Call this routine in your job/sequence and then pass the same to your parallel job.

Ajay

Simple question about copy stage

Hi Jag,

You cannot achieve this using a Copy Stage because down the line it will create issues.

Not able to read .XLS file from DS

Hi, Is your flatfile Delimited or Fixed? Cause if you are modifying your file extension alone, you will not impact the delimiter within the file. For your delimiter also to be changed you need to manually open your file and change it or have some perl script called through unix and modify the delimi...

Use of funnel and sort

Hi,
You can still retain your first record from first dataset into a funnel by changing the funnel type (which is by default Parallel to Sequencial).

Inside funnel properties you have an option to set sequence funnel. Try that out.

LANG Environment variable

Hi,
The UNICODE error is a very strange error. If you have defined the STRING fields in your job as Unicode, try making them as 'Non-Unicode' and reimport the metadata back to the job. This should fix your problem.

SFTP - passing a password from within a script

Hi,
You cannot set the password parameter as a public key. You need to MASK your password value in Unix and then pass it as a parameter to the file.

Hi,
Include the header file JOBCONTROL.H in your code and then try executing your DS Job. It should work.

Dataset corruption, SIGSEGV while reading

Hi,
Delete your DataSet from the location using DataSet Management and then try running your job again from the beginning.

This should solve your problem. If this resolves your problem i will let you know what was the problem.
