What's in the logs for IIS and the WebSphere application server to indicate why they are no longer running?

Your assumption is correct. You can see this in the job score.

Difficult, inasmuch as parallel jobs do not natively have access to hashed files/UniVerse tables. You could, of course, use one of these in a server shared container in your parallel job that writes the Data Set.

But may I ask why you are doing this? No other application can access Data Sets.

It's not one of the standard groups mentioned in the Installation Guide. I suspect that it's a group that whoever installed/configured Information Server set up as the DataStage/QualityStage Administrator user. Did you check the DataStage credentials.

What is the data type of your source and of your target? If they are Date, then format is irrelevant. Dates are stored as binary quantities.

"Unread" Visual Cues

Unread items in DSXchange have orange icons. When I connect via wireless modem, as soon as I have posted (posting.php), they are all reverted to "read" (blue) icons, whether or not I have read them, so I have to rely on timestamps to work out which ones remain unread. On some wired connect...

Look at the score to see what's happening (which is rarely exactly what's designed). The operator used to read from or write to a Data Set is copy and a copy operator that only makes an identical copy of its input is removed by the optimizer. Therefore there is no active stage left in your job from ...

Not without seeing your design.

Does it have four Execute Command activities with no dependencies between them?
