DSXchange

What you see is what you get from the 'Formatted output' option. Turn it off. XML does not need formatting of any kind. People do, but no parser does.

If you really think you need that, take your file and 'pretty print' it with an external utility.

The changes needed are documented and haven't changed from what you needed to do for the 7.5 server.

A little crazy, I know, but this is explained in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide pdf manual.

Sounds like you don't have your new server properly configured for Oracle. Does it have an Oracle client installed on it? Have you made the dsenv changes it needs?

How many nodes is your job running on?

What makes you think the increment isn't 1? What are you seeing?

1) Because you still have jobs running, I assume. If you restore the ones for the jobs that have not completed yet, I would assume the error would not be generated. 2) Temporary stuff, whatever temp data the process needs to accumulate while the job runs, I would imagine.

There are all kinds of ways to pick the record(s) you want from a sequential file input stream, including just the Nth record. Gonna go all anal here and reiterate that the answer to the question that was asked - I was just wondering if it was possible to read a specific record from a sequential fil...

The other typical piece of advice is to write to a static filename and then rename it with the date/timestamp after job. A simple script/batch can do the trick.

Then you'll need some sort of 'pre-processing' step to validate filenames and only pass along ones that match your mysterious criteria. How exactly does one validate your filenames? What are the business rules?

A job that fails can still spend a great deal of time afterwards writing errors to the log. And the Designer does not show job status, all green links <> job running ok.

You need to read the documentation for the stage. Off the top of my head, you set that environment variable and you then use a different character (or pair of characters?) to represent the # in the job and it translates it/them back under the covers.

No, you simply create them via your normal underlying operating system's methodology.
