It's not possible in a sequencer, which fires if any/all of its inputs has fired. In a SEQUENCE, however, use an Execute Command activity to execute a sleep command.

SIGSEGV means that you've run out of (virtual) memory and/or attempted to access a memory address to which you're not entitled. I suspect that, in your case, the most likely suspect is the first scenario. The solution is to add more memory if you want to standardize this volume of data.

Then run your job as the user ID to which you change using sudo. For example

Code: Select all

sudo -u userID "$DSHOME/bin/dsjob -run -jobstatus $projectname $jobname"

Think of it this way. A Copy stage creates N copies of its input, where N is the number of outputs. A Copy stage with zero outputs creates zero copies of its input. But it consumes the input anyway.

Looks like Arnd might be on to something with his question about opposite-Endian. How did you "drop" the file on UNIX?

Seems like overkill to me. Why not download ETLstats from Kim Duke's web site?

DataStage would have highlighted the stage in which the error was detected when you click Show Error in the compilation window. If there's no stage highlighted scroll left and/or down until you find the highlighted stage.

Upgrade to version 8.5 to get a parallel job debugger. Until then, you can change the job properties to compile in trace mode, and this will give you the ability to run a small number of rows per node and will automatically insert a peek operator on every link in the job.
