DSXchange

It's separately purchased, as far as I am aware. Or it may come with the QualityStage Real Time components. Unfortunately I can not find any public information quickly; the only information on IBM's web site seems to be hidden with PartnerWorld. Maybe someone here who is an IBM business partner can ...

No, what I was talking about is using the QualityStage plug-in to invoke the QualityStage jobs. As soon as you talk about writing to a file, you are losing the possibility of retaining partition parallelism.

Welcome aboard! :D You have some badly constructed dictionary items in your UniVerse (hashed) files. One has a "D" in field #8 of a "D" or "I" type field. Another has "M" in field #8. It may be that your UniVerse application is using field numbers between 8 and 20 in contravention of advice given in...

Are you running QualityStage independently or calling from DataStage? At the current version, you must use DataStage to read the Data Set and stream the data through QualityStage. Obviously you set up your QualityStage jobs to execute in Parallel Extender mode under this scenario. In the next versio...

There is ALWAYS a way in server jobs to run without creating fatal errors from the job design, if you are not using row buffering. I include that caveat (a) because you do not have control of the ipc mechanism and (b) because theverma seems infatuated with using the IPC stage. Environmental fatal er...

Does the error go away if you remove the IPC stage from the job and disable inter-process row buffering? If so, ask yourself why you have the IPC stage at all. If you believe you really need it, then you may seek to tune its properties, particularly the timeout period, or to investigate possible cau...

The overhead of fopen() is large. Don't open the file every time. Keep it open while the job is running, perhaps using a static file handle, and append new lines to it.

Of course, if you have multiple concurrent writers this is not a valid approach.
