Please I need help ASAP. I cannot stop a server job that is running. I have had the DBA kill the oracle session, and I have submitted a stop from the DataStage Director, but nothing is stopping it.

Server Job to connect to DB2 on mainframe

Can someone point me to the best tool (or maybe a free tool :lol: ) to use to connect a server job to a DB2 table on a mainframe. We actually have DS390, but we are looking at using server jobs to directly connect to the database. (We heard that using DB2 connect is faster than using the DS390 piece...

Calling stored procedures from Oracle

I know there must be some way to call a Stored Procedure from Oracle that returns a value, but I can't find it. Has anyone called stored procedures that returned values and if so, could you please tell me how to do this.

Thanks for any help.

This may seem like a very basic question :oops: , but I am very new to DataStage and I am trying to create a New Server Routine that will allow me to return more than one value. I would be passing the routine 5 arguments and based on those, I want to return 4 new values which would be populated into...
