Thanks for the reply. Source is SQL server. You mean define the column as double in OC connector and do the conversation i.,e double to float in transformer. Any idea how to convert. There's a option Schema reconciliation -> Fail on size mismatch -> NO. It worked, but there's a data loss. Thanks,

Sequential file partition

Hi,

Got a question from DS exam.

You have a job that reads in sequential file followed by transformer stage. When you run this job, which partitioning method will be used by default?

The answer is Round Robin.

Any idea why.

Thanks,
