On similar lines, IBM says that if the User Registry in WAS was set to Federated Repository, then you can add the isadmin and wasadmin to the local repository, and hence, be able to authenticate against both, LDAP or the local internal registry.

Assuming that your sequential file contains the rows in that order, in the Transformer, create a stage variable where you compare the previous value of the concatenated keys with the current value.

If the Key column matches and CRC values doestnt match between source and lookup then it is an updated one. I would place some kin...
