Looks like you have a few extra stage types registered in Proj2. Can you please verify whether the indexing on DS_STAGETYPES is intact? LIST.INDEX DS_STAGETYPES ALL If any of the indices shows "build required" then rebuild the indexes at some convenient time when you have exclusive acces t...

Re: strange plugin error

"The current selection cannot be cut/copied because it includes a plugin stage (ODBC_PRC) with not DS_STAGETYPES entry." This message should be of substantial concern - it suggests that you don't have read access to DS_STAGETYPES or that someone has been removing items from there, which i...

Probably a Data Set in most cases, but you need to factor in the amount of resources needed to populate that Data Set in the first place.

If the requirement is urgent, as you claim, sign up with your official support provider for priority service, and learn just how much "urgent" costs.

DSXchange is an all-volunteer site, whose members post as and when they can. Note also that they are under no compulsion to do so.

1. Try Information Center at IBM.
2. There is none. Create the columns and load them upstream with constant values.

Your assumption is indeed incorrect. Take a look at the code for the routine, to see how locking is handled. A row level lock is taken and held only for the duration of the update.

Welcome aboard. In server jobs all you have in the ODBC stage is positional parameters - in this case row numbers within the Columns grid.
The columns that end up in the SET clause are not marked as Key. The columns that end up in the WHERE clause are marked as Key in the Columns grid.

Yes, provided that a VOC pointer exists to the hashed file.

Note - it's hashed file, not hash file.

A current client has reports in Cognos and in Microsoft SSRS, who wants to import the details of both into the unified metadata repository of Information Server. Cognos is not a problem. The SSRS report definitions are stored as XML documents in Microsoft SQL Server database. The question is what th...

Disable operator combination, that you may learn which operator (stage) is actually throwing the error. It might be easier to diagnose what is happening once you've done that.

Actually server jobs can do it, if you specify use of the read cache. In parallel jobs it's very obvious what's going on if you look at the score. A Lookup stage generates a composite operator containing the two operators LUT_CreateOp (which loads the reference data set into memory and creates an in...

OK, the name of the product (unless you have an older version) is WebSphere Transformation Extender. Whether you have an older version or a new one, the installation instructions are in a PDF document that comes with the software.
