Code: Select all

command1 && command2

What could be simpler?

Craig's solution would depend on which shell script language you are using. Maybe

Code: Select all

command1
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
   command2
fi

Convert the timestamp to a string prior to aggregation and back again afterwards.

Get the null handling right. Then tell us where the VarChar is in your job design that is generating the message in your original post.

To convert dynamic to static hashed use

You can not resize RT_BPnnn or RT_BPnnn.O (which are regular directories).
