Try using Table Read method in the DB2 Connector.

The Sequential File stage uses STREAMS I/O, so should not be a bottleneck. Rows/sec is a meaningless metric since we don't know how wide your rows are.

That, or try escaping the backslashes. DIR /B C:\\XML\\TEST.xml But, with UNIX commands, you will still have the problem that drive letter is not recognized. MKS Toolkit regards the current drive as "the filesystem" and its root as the filesystem root. So you should probably (a) make sure ...

The ls command ought to work, as you have MKS Toolkit installed. But there's no reason you couldn't use the DIR command, ideally with the /B switch.

To which actual version did you apply Fix Pack 3? What does your official support provider have to say? Have you searched IBM website for known issues around this Fix Pack?

Why not use separate flows, one for CA and FL and the other for the other states? Only the latter performs the lookup, and the data flows are reunited using a Funnel stage.

Ray or whomever - doesn't this rule out the use of RCP? :? No, it's exactly the kind of thing RCP is designed for. Imagine there are 10 columns coming in to the Transformer stage, and the update field is created within the Transformer stage. 11 columns per row will be transferred to the Transformer...
