Welcome aboard. How is null represented in the file? Have you filled in the Null Field Value or Null Field Length property to indicate to DataStage that this is how null is represented?

Try it and let us know. You can not use DSJ.STAGELIST (which is only active stages) but DSJ.STAGELIST2 (passive stages) or DSJ.FULLSTAGELIST (all stages) might include container names.

Is it just one job? It sounds like this job may have some internal corruption that makes DataStage believe that there is a duplicate stage name or, perhaps, duplicate link name connected to the same stage. Do you happen to have a backup (export) of this job?

Welcome aboard.

If you are only processing one file, processing mode is sequential. If you nominate more than one node in a node map or node pool but only name one file, a warning message will be logged indicating that the stage can not operate in parallel execution mode.
