As the Generator property for the field for which you want to generate the value.

Right click on this field in the Columns grid, choose Edit Row from that menu, and fill in the Generator property sub-options from the Available Properties to Add.

I didn't really mean that as a serious suggestion. And changing them would still invalidate the restart logic.

The whole point of restartability is to be able to restart the same job sequence as the one that failed. This includes its parameter values.

DataStage does not handle imaginary numbers, as far as I am aware.

If you mean "valid" numbers the Num() function is good to validate numbers in general, or you can use the IsValid() function if you want to limit the possibilities to a particular data type.

Try to do a single-job compile in Designer. If the job is locked, the message box will yield the session ID of the owner. Open the web console for Information Server, go to Session Management and disconnect that session. This will release the lock. This - I believe - is what Arnd was referring to.
