Welcome aboard. How do you define "performance"? What's wrong with 0.012 seconds? How many rows were selected?

IBM offers a class called "DataStage Administration". It is geared entirely to parallel jobs, and does not cover administering the engine very much at all.

My class - while designed for the server environment - does have good coverage of administering the engine.

Each is chargeable.

There is no such thing as int(2). You have an int32 with a display width of 2. The largest possible int32 has 11 characters. This will not fit in a string[6] and therefore DataStage generates this alert. You may have knowledge about your data that might allow you to use int16, where six characters i...

Your output file is the same as your input file - a bad thing, because it destroys (or would destroy) your input file. Use a different output file name.
