Stage variables store information from header row. Each is updated only if it's a header row. For example svHCol2 might be drived as If InLink.Col1 = "H" Then InLink.Col2 Else svCol2 When processing a detail row, use the stage variables to supply the header row values. Output link is const...

Sorted - and key partitioned - on grouping columns (not necessarily on columns to which you are applying aggregate functions).

And it is documented as behaving thus for SELECT. If you set the Partition Table property then its execution mode may be able to be set to parallel but otherwise you're limited to sequential. This is because of how Oracle delivers its results; they are stored in a temporary table (whether in memory ...

*VMADMSUB is a legacy from when DataStage was built on UniVerse; it is the support subroutine for the UniAdmin client. It would appear that some of the code in DataStage still calls it.

CRC32 is like a hashing algorithm that generates a 32-bit unsigned integer based on the byte values in the supplied character string. It therefore carries with it the probability that the same value might be generated from two different input values, at a probability level of 1 in 2^32 (approximatel...

Yes. But beware that upgrading DataStage will overwrite ds.rc. You may be better to place your script in /etc/rc.d separately.
