Best way to handle password parameters
NOTE: Split off from this topic after a change in subject. The security group is pushing to revoke any database privilege that smells like it could be elevated, as well as pushing changes that would force us to change database passwords on application/system IDs that were already exempted to be non-...

Datastage Designer does have command line parameters so that you can start without any interaction: dsdesign.exe /H=<host> /D=<domain> /U=<user> /P=<password <project> By this, you only need to check if it opened and then close it. It could also be enough if you check other things which are fully co...

Adding new empty parameter to a heavy-used sequence
I have a sequence which is used in many other sequences. I now want to add a new string parameter to it because a few calling sequences need a "special logic". The parameter should be empty as a default (so not blank but really an empty string). However, I didn't find a way to do this with...

Reading binary data as string in parallel job with schema?
I have a file with some hex strings in it like the following three bytes: x'43 x'56 x'78 I want to read that into datastage within a sequential file stage using a schema file and get a string that has "435678" in it. Is that possible and if yes, how? Background: I want to generate the sche...

Change default parameter values of stage?
Is it possible to somehow change the default values that are in a stage when you take it from the design canvas? We need to do some settings over and over again in the DB2 Connector stages and some developers then forget them...

XML stage is very slow?
We are using Datastage 8.7 and we try to use the new XML stage instead of a server job with the XML input stage. For a test, we tried to parse the XML joblogs (a few thousand) that Datastage can produce (DSJobReport). The job in both cases only does the import and peeks out data so it is for sure on...

Long login times from command line when using credentials
We are starting our sequences from AIX command line via dsjob under 7.5. Under Datastage 8.7 we now noticed that dsjob command seems to have a very large startup time (5s even for a simple -lprojects) and the dsjob process consumes a whole Power7 CPU core during this when used with user/password in ...
