temporary directory in sortstage

Post by mail2hfz »

Hi All,
The Files created in temporary directory location given in sort stage properties disappear once the job is done.
I see the file while job is running.Do these files get moved to any other project directory after job is done.?I am confused where these files are.Please advise.

Why are you looking for them? The nature of temporary files are such that they are cleaned up after the job completes because they're... well, temporary and thus no longer needed.

I am asked to give new location for the temporary directory in sort stage for my job designs.I changed to new location and while testing I found no sort files there.But there are some sort files starting with SOR* out there (Might be developed by other processes).That was my concern how come file are present created by other processes.

Seems to me you'd have to find out where those ones come from and ask them.
