What do Datastage means when it says while starting a parallel job giving the message :
DSD.StageRun Active stage starting, tracemode = 0.

That's a message from a server job, not from a parallel job, unless you have a BASIC Transformer stage in the parallel job.

Trace mode is a sum of powers of two indicating which active stage tracing options have been enabled when running a server job. It will always be zero in a parallel job, as tracing uses a different mechanism in parallel jobs.
