Metabrokers and MetaStage

Post by bigpoppa »

Hi.

When we bought DS, we got Metabrokers, including the ERwin metabroker. If we don't have MetaStage, are any of the metabrokers of use to me?

Ultimately, I would like to import table definitions from ERwin into DataStage. Any suggestions if I just have the basic DataStage package?

Also, thank you to Ray for his many posts!

Thanks,
BP

Sorry, MetaBrokers only work with MetaStage AFAIK. Without it, the only way I'm aware of to get table definitions "from ERwin" into DataStage is from the actual tables that ERwin references, not the model itself. We take this route - model in ERwin, forward engineer into Oracle and then import the metadata into DataStage from the actual Oracle tables.
