Will it resets after the number is reached?

Thanks

No practical limit, and it does not reset. The engineering limit depends on the precision setting, but you can always get at least a fifteen digit number.

You will have to request it from your support provider - DSXchange can not provide, or (legally) can any of its participants.

But with small files, and presumably given that all you're going to do with the file contents is to call UtilityRunJob(), I think a Folder stage may be worth considering.

You should find Open Command and Close Command properties under the Available Properties to Add frame when the Options folder is selected, if you are using the Oracle Enterprise stage.

It really is a different question warranting a separate thread. Is there a message logged showing what the UV stage has done? What is the data type of the Key column?

Load the tables into local text files. Use cat to put them together for UNION ALL. If you need to remove duplicates, there are several strategies available, all of which need the file to be sorted. And, of course, tune your database queries. Make sure that the tables have been analyzed so that the q...

An inner join (those rows that exist in both sets) can never be the same as a Cartesian product (all rows from the right input joined to every row from the left input). If the left input contains N rows and the right input contains M rows, then an inner join will return the smaller of N and M rows, ...
