Though Ray didn't mention it in his post, that command needs to be executed in the Administrator. Select the project you are interested in and then hit the "Command" button. Cut and paste the command there and hit "Execute". You can then hit "Next" to page through the o...

I'm not certain what you've been told regarding converting jobs from server to parallel, but I'd like to amplify a few things: Though some of the stages look similar between the two, the differences are significant between server and PX jobs. There are many more stages with many more options (some o...

Ray - I modified the original topic to be a bit more descriptive (per your comment above). Apparently the thread is still active...

I just had this happen as well. It turns out someone borrowed my computer over the weekend and toggled Annotations off. When the client is set not to display annotations it won't let you add any annotations either. The button looks like a capital "A" in the toolbar. If the button is depres...

I believe I have the same issue and I've been able to resolve it. I know this post is probably too late for Emma, but hopefully it will help those that look at this post later. The "FILLER" is coming in from a previous link that is using a dataset as a lookup. Datasets have the originating...

You can also send email to editor@dsxchange.com - that will work.

To expand a bit on Arnd's answer... If you look at the .ds file in each directory (do NOT modify it) you can see that it tracks internal files for each partition (node) that was in use when the dataset was created. They will be different for each of the .ds files, so none of the pieces will overwrit...

Here's a link to a very old post on the topic. The methodology hasn't changed...

Congratulations Craig!

However Arnd was incorrect about the rewards...

The silver stars have been upgraded and are now self-sticking.

We would have sent you one but now they are all stuck to each other...

Glad to hear it worked - I'll mark the topic "resolved"! Hopefully this won't be a problem in release 8 with the new monitoring / performance features.
