DSXchange

That's true... forgot about that little nugget.

It's been discussed here quite a bit as an exact search for "xls" will reveal. One such example is here, there are plenty of others.

You are trying to view the data where/how exactly? Also, you should be using the Complex Flat File stage for this, are you?

Space? No, not that I'm aware of. Some operating systems (like AIX) have a limit on the number of directories, however.

Convert them to Server jobs.

(in the immortal words of BOC - don't fear the Server)

Or you could simply use the GUI. But yes, a dsx export can be carefully edited and reimported... but then both names will exist and you'll need to delete all of the old jobs.

As noted, AIX is an IBM product so I can't see how it's "out of their scope". You just may need a different support organization there. Also, a System Administrator should be able to configure the filesystem to be optimal for random access of small sizes (as Ray notes) regardless of which ...

I would think your official support provider could help answer that question, or perhaps even provide pointers on setting up ZFS appropriately.

You should just be more patient, especially if only Ray is allowed to answer.

I've used the DS.TOOLS entry in the past for that but have no clue what the actual "tool" itself would be if it is no longer there.

Do the files have header records?

Hard to say. First guess when Oracle things are fine from the command line but not from DataStage would be the environments each is leveraging. Perhaps your command line sessions are using different values for $ORA_HOME and your "shared library path" then they do in job? That's the first p...

ORA-12705 errors generally mean an invalid value in the NLS_LANG environment variable. Not sure why that would only happen in one project, but you first need to see if that is the case.

Go back to the top, edit your first post and change the subject to be something more meaningful. Then do an exact search for "The system cannot locate the resource specified".

Sounds like a pretty standard semaphore technique but you're the only one with access to 'the code' and thus the ability to track it down. They're typically used to signal that a file (or set of files) have transferred completely. Rather than polling for the actual file and risk starting to process ...

Still? Did you change something?
