Why a loop? Why not just leverage the File Pattern capability of the Sequential File stage and use a wildcard? Add the option to include the filename as a column in the output.

I don't recall Server jobs supporting milliseconds in timestamps. Just treat the field as a string and substring off the date or use Field() to get it.

Well, there you go. Stop trying, it's not a supported operating system.

Post a count of the number of files in the &PH& (Phantom) directory in each of your projects. And sure, logs can be saved but it's up to you to programmatically transfer the contents to less transient storage.

Not much help without a Premium account but Ray posted a complete OpenSequentialFile routine back in the day to illustrate all of the ins and outs of dealing with files in a routine.

Command line via dsjob -jobinfo or from a routine using DSGetJobInfo() can get you elapsed time and then you can compare the results.

Yes, that could work - a BASIC routine in all jobs to append the information to a flat file and then a one-time load of that to STAT post cycle.

Best to create a generic job that captures stats from any job and updates your STAT target. Also look into downloading ETLStats from Kim Duke's website.

Start by not creating two. :wink:

I lock one and we continue the discussion in the other... your choice on which one gets locked.

Probably from people with a Server background as it only exists in the Parallel product. In any case, either way works just fine.
