So it seems you have a working solution.

The only way to call a stored procedure from a server routine is to use BCI functions, and to execute an appropriate SQL statement with them (for example CALL or EXEC).

Your DSN points to the workbook and you can import table definitions and otherwise work with the individual worksheets as separate tables.

RID = Repository ID

The other is a unique identifier of some record somewhere in the Repository database. I have no idea where.

It may be that your credentials to use the suite (and therefore its associated services) are lacking.

Forget about using rows/sec as a metric of "performance". It's largely meaningless. Then answer some of the questions about your environment posed by others earlier. Also, how many nodes were you running on? What was the startup time and run time (reported in the log)? What does the job ac...

The middle stage variable (svSeq) resets the count to 1 if ...

Unless they have visited your site thay can not assert that you have it actually installed. Even if IBM provided a license for it, that does not mean that you have installed it. (However, if you did order it and have the license, you will have to pay for the license.)
