RCP only works for pure pass-through. If you neeed to derive an output column from an input column by any other means, or to use an input column in a stage variable or reference key expression, or to use an input column in an output link constraint, then that input column must explicitly be mentione...

Vista is not supported as an operating system for DataStage. The vendor makes no guarantees that the product will even install.

The same is true of XP, but XP has been around longer and is closer to the Windows NT model that does support DataStage.

What's different between the system where it is working and the system where it is not? Please consider non-DataStage differences as well, particularly differences in Teradata settings.

Modifying the input argument in a function is never a good plan - you can get unwanted side effects. What did you actually want this function to accomplish?

Path search failure suggests that one of the search list environment variables (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, CLASSPATH, etc.) needs extra information (extra directory pathnames).

Does any derivation occur to SEGMENT in the Transformer stage?
Please post the generated OSH so we can see what's happening.

No.

There is no "comparable version" prior to 8. The only parallel-capable version for Windows is 7.5x2, which does not have a UNIX equivalent. (7.5x2 relies heavily on being able to execute UNIX functions via MKS Toolkit, and you need the .NET C++ compiler installed, so straight away there is the poten...

That's just Notepad. Use Word; it can "translate" the UNIX line terminators. Maybe WordPad can too, I've never tried it. I usually use Word (or UltraEdit) because I usually want to see line numbers.

Welcome aboard. Can you please describe where you are using the $PROJDEF token? It should be used only in the job parameters grid, and only as the default value for a job parameter added as an envionment variable. Specifically, you do not set the default value of the environment variable to $PROJDEF...

How big is the file? Ask your UNIX Administrator whether large file support is enabled. Does your job design include a row limit in an output link of the Transformer stage?

Scale is the number of decimal places required to be represented in the string representation of the number.

Only the ability to guarantee that no other process was updating the table using the sequence to generate keys at the same time as the DataStage job. If there are other processes that update the table using the sequence at other times then the DataStage job, then you need to design in a check to ret...

Could be an example of "disgruntled former employee syndrome"! (OK, youse guys, try and figure out why nothing is loading!)
