Counting DataStage jobs

Greetings - Basic Question: Can someone tell me if there is a relatively easy way to assess the number of DataStage jobs in any given installation? More Info: I am working for a company going through a merger and the time has finally come to make a decision ... DataStage or "the other guy"...

Thanks Ray!! You got me thinking with those questions - so I went back and took another look at my code. A couple small but significant changes and now it works like a charm!! For anyone watching and hoping for an answer... 1. My code that builds the dynamic table (FunctionB in my earlier post) fill...

Wow - good questions. As far as filling the COMMON Block - I thought that was happening in this part of my code: $INCLUDE DSINCLUDE JOBCONTROL.H COMMON /DSTtable / aDSTTable FunctionName = 'CSTfromGMT' DEFFUN CSTfromGMT(GMTStamp) calling "DSU.CSTfromGMT" DEFFUN DayLightSavingsTime(aDSTTabl...

by the way - would it help to know that I initially wrote this code on version 4 of DataStage? And, to my best recollection, it worked just fine when called from a datastage job. :wink:

Hi Ray - hmmm - I hate to admit I'm not 100% sure how to do that ... so here is how I got the data I'm about to post... I went to the project directory/RT_BP759/JOB.1316733923.DT.1493956403.TRANS1 I then counted to "at or about" the 90th line and then extracted that line and several lines ...

Maybe I'm missing something here - but try changing the "OR"s in your non-reject link to "AND"s. As I read your code right now, if any one of the following is NotNull , that record will go down your non-reject link: Not(IsNull(DSLink2.userid)) Or Not(IsNull(DSLink2.Amount)) Or No...

Thanks Again Craig! I replaced "UTF8" with "AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8" and that appears to have done the trick. For the record - what is LC_CTYPE? And do I need to set this in the administrator as a user defined env variable? If yes, then do I set the default value (in admin) to &quo...
