Clearly it's not the same problem. Therefore please begin a new thread.

Stage variable expressions do not use shell regular expressions, and in particular not range elements of regular expressions.

The AlNum() function reports whether its argument is alphanumeric.

Then resolve it with your official support provider. As far as I am concerned I have given all the help that I can. I CAN see both server and parallel maps.

It's all marketing, don't worry about it. When IBM acquired DataStage and other products from Ascential, the products were included within IBM's WebSphere brand for middleware. By the time IBM had worked on version 8.1 for long enough they decided it didn't really fit under WebSphere, so created a n...

Read my question again, then answer it. I asked whether the environment variable is being resolved properly, not whether the problem had been resolved.

This is a lock held by a defunct process. You need to release such locks either using the UNLOCK command or by re-starting DataStage. The UNLOCK command includes options for specifying a particular lock in several different ways. | UNLOCK [NODE node] [USER user.number] | | [FILE pathname | [DEVICE d...

Yes, everything is in the one package, called Information Server. What actually installs depends on which products you have licensed. So, if you have bought licences for DataStage, QualityStage and Information Analyzer, you will get all three.

Does uv work with the -admin option, for example uv -admin -info ?

Usually the module that can't be loaded is libgciudt6.so rather than libodbc.so - so I'm as surprised as you are by this one.

Most of what you want to do can be accomplished by replacing the uv command with dssh.

If you have Enterprise Edition then you DO have both server and parallel NLS maps on the page you reach by clicking the NLS button from the General tab. The only way you would not see parallel maps is that you don't have Enterprise Edition, in which case you would not be designing parallel jobs. The...

Have you re-configured the DSNs?

Have you tried using an ODBC stage rather than DRS?

Do you get the same error using DS_CONNECT test utility?

Try loading/using the map ibm-1256 rather than MS-1256. They are the same, though the former is for parallel jobs and the latter for server jobs, which is where I think your error may have arisen. If that doesn't work either, consult Appendix A of National Language Support Guide for more alternatives.

(a) It's feasible PROVIDED THAT you hardware supports that many processes. The total load is equivalent to running fifteen simple jobs (one equivalent to each stream) simultaneously. I would prefer individual jobs and either a sequence or job control routine in which I could set an upper limit on th...

The exact reason is that the internal structure and access method for a Lookup File Set is through the index on the identified Key column(s) so that, in order to be able to find something in a Lookup File Set, you need to provide a key value. Put another way, this stage supports GetRowByKey() but do...
