What?

So, what have you tried? The UserVariables stage can be used to fetch the list of filenames and then the Start Loop stage can take one entry off that list for each iteration of the loop and pass it as a job parameter to your processing job. The only 'tricky' part would be building a routine that ret...

Hmmm... try "NUL" rather than ".\NUL" as see if that helps.

dsjob -ljobs and dsexport are what you'd need.

This might help as well as give you some idea of other keywords you can search for. For example, I used "entrypoint" to find this, remembering that it had come up in the discussion of this topic a number of times.

Our last webinar was on this very topic. Search the forum for checkpoints for many discussions on the topic. It is also detailed in the online help for Sequence (no 'r') jobs.

You can't "cd" to a drive letter without adding the "/d" option. Not saying that's your issue but it sure would be an issue when launching the command from any other drive. I know that's not what you are doing, just pointing something out. I can't answer your initialization quest...

All the jobs one at a time? You'll need to script that, extract a list of job names and then iterate through that list, exporting each one.

The parallel transformer requires C/C++ routines, it's the BASIC Transformer (or Server jobs) that lets you use BASIC routines with all the caveats that brings to the parallel world. As to where what you need to do to create PX routines is documented, I don't know. There some information in the Deve...

no one do response for this to answer my query . :!: Sheesh - learn patience! For those of us in the western world, your later posts were well after midnight and into sleepy time, elsewhere you are firmly into the weekend. Not to mention the fact that whining for help doesn't get you help, usually ...

First off, Vista is not a supported operating system for the DataStage client though I believe some folks have been successful with it. A search for 'vista' here may yield some answers. Secondly, you can have several versions of the .net framework installed and Vista typically has from 1.1 to 3.5 in...

Did you take a shot at an exact search for "arabic"? There's been quite a bit of conversation here on that general subject, would surprise me if none of it was helpful to you.

So, that would affect your ability to install the client? Or is it saying they were "not installed successfully" because (perhaps) they weren't selected to be installed? Guessing here as well.

First suggestion is to do an Exact Match search on "previously undefined" and look thru the matches for similar issues and see if anything there helps you.

It would help future searchers if you posted the specifics of how you used OConv in this context for Teradata date fields. That way there's more than one person that knows how to do this.
