As I understand it, the reporting console in Information Server can access reports produced by any tool in the Information Server suite. Alas I do not presently have the opportunity to investigate further.

You can not.

Not only is it not supported, the installation will not complete.

Is it possible to generate the reports in Metadata Workbench and then to display/print them using Information Server's reporting console?

That was not the UNIX rm command that Arnd suggested.

It was orchadmin rm controlfile.ds that was suggested, to be executed from a UNIX shell with the appropriate environment variables (such as APT_CONFIG_FILE and APT_ORCHHOME) set to correct values.

With 1MB of memory you're not even going to have an operating system, much less DataStage. Please check your figures.

Each hour of video takes up to 100 hours to prepare, script, shoot, edit and prepare for web access, and there is the added logistical nightmare of assembling the equipment and the (volunteer) presenter in the same place at the same time.

There exists a class, offered by DSXchange, called Server to Parallel Transition Lab - you can enrol on the instructor-led class or you can watch the video streamed from the Learning Center (once you have purchased your premium membership).

So is this some kind of back-handed compliment for DSXchange?

If not, why is it posted in this forum?

In my experience you need NLS enabled to be able to process Japanese characters correctly - and even then it's not always easy!

Delete new project.
Create new project (empty).
Export old project using Export > DataStage Components in Manager.
Import into new project.

No.

Restart DataStage on first machine.
Perform DS.REINDEX ALL in the first project.
Do not copy anything except so as to have a backup from which you can restore.
If reindexing fails involve your support provider.
