DSXchange

Create a routine that reads the message(s) from the log and constructs and sends the email (use DSSendMail). Invoke that routine via a Routine activity from the controlling sequence.

Assuming you mean projects on the engine tier, certainly. While the WebSphere App Server is down, it's safe to back these up, using any file system back utility. No clients can be connected and no jobs can be running because, if you are doing things correctly, you have shut down the DataStage engine...

Hashed files are navigated by field position, rather than by field name. Non-key fields occupy positions 1, 2, 3 and so on.

Some postal services (for example USA, Canada, Australia) provided databases against which you can verify that an address actually exists - that the postal service is prepared to deliver mail there. As a separately charged part of QualityStage you can purchase such of those databases as you require,...

Change it to a string within your DataStage job.

Don't use DataStage to do the checking - it can only be after the event. Use one of the newer technologies, such as Change Data Capture, which can feed the deltas into DataStage jobs.

Welcome aboard. This is a huge question. The good news is that the problem is not on the client. You will have to inspect the log of each job that has aborted to learn why it has aborted, and address the identified problem. Reset the job in Director rather than recompiling. This may create an entry ...

Code -2 translates as DSJE.BADSTATE: job is not in correct state, either already running or not successfully compiled.

Welcome aboard. Provided that the sequence was compiled with the option to add checkpoints so that it is restartable, its status should now be Aborted/Restartable. All you have to do is to issue a new Start request. Any activities that completed successfully will be skipped - unless marked as "...

Take a slow, systematic walkthrough of the job. Look closely at all the Columns grids in all the stages. Look for instances of Unicode.

The space character indicates a positive (or non-negative) value. However, trailing sign is not directly supported in parallel jobs. (It can easily be done in server job or BASIC Transformer stage.) The first question, though, is to make sure that your target field is a string (not a number). Withou...

The difference can only be seconds. This will be a numeric data type of some kind, which can implicitly be converted to string (VarChar) provided that the string maximum size (precision) is sufficiently large.

What permission does the executing user have to F:/IBM/InformationServer/Server/Datasets ?
