The weight you see in the report is whichever weight ended up being used, the calcuated weight or the weight calculated including overrides. Negative weights are disagreement weights.

Slight variation. It controls how many DataStage client machines can be connected to the server at any one time. Each of these may have more than one client connected (up to ten, if I recall correctly). A real geek may well have more than one machine! And, if everyone is sharing the same login ID (n...

Check that all services are running, particularly the WebSphere Application Server and the ASBAgent. That's where port number 31531 gets involved. Check, too, that the machine name nsads-dev can be resolved to an IP address (using ping is sufficient).
