Plus there are a number of settings that limit the actual number of jobs being kicked off by the Job Sequencer. I do not have a reference handy to help guide you just yet, but this is tunable.

XMLStreamException is a catch due to an error somewhere else.

We need the complete stack trace (perhaps a review of the prior errors), and a detailed question. Thanks.

They are based on Universe, an ancient (yet very fast) database schema. It is generally not public knowledge.

Actually, not quite. The After Job and After Stage queries are typically seen as "do this after we're done." Typically maintenance-level stuff that are not critical, and failures are typically not captured as fatal (it is done at the end of the job's/stage's run). If you are doing somethin...

Please review the documentation again carefully. For WeekdayFromDate, it expects a Date field, and will return a numeric value. A numeric value is never equal to a string called "Sunday". There is also type conversion functions detailed here: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/?lan...

As for the original issue - for the updated log, the original failure is within Item #27. But usually, the first failure message is just the Orchestrate engine going, "Woah, a player is dying" and usually get fed back to the logging mechanism long before the actual failure is reported. Ite...

That's because dsadm is generally recognized as the administrator account for the most part. When you start using other accounts, it will still try to use dsadm instead, but the authentication doesn't work. You need to explicitly define your authentication method. If you are concerned with showing y...

Indeed, PX solution have a distinctive different solution than Server solutions.

We need the specific error message, including the Message ID in order to help you.

It is possible there may be an issue with the ODBC driver when it is called in parallel. Please contact IBM Support and ask for the latest DataDirect ODBC drivers. (Not sure if FixCentral would provide that.)

The dsjob command serves as an example of how to use the DataStage API. You may as well use dsjob, as it's supported, but my point is that you can create your own. ...

General question to the home audience - has this changed at all in the later releases? Nope. Other than changing the supported compiler (which may require that you tweak your makefile), nothing have really changed in this area. BTW, the 11.5 doc: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSZJPZ_11...
