Not in the schema file. That is a transformation; you would specify it in a Modify or Transformer stage.

Runtime Column Propagation (RCP) is a technique for dealing with dynamic metadata in DataStage jobs. You can find more information in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide or in the IBM Information Center

Two techniques are easy; there are others. 1. Create an explicit Failure trigger. This takes precedence over other forms of error handling, even if it only runs into a Sequencer. 2. Follow your command with a command that does return a zero exit status. This technique assumes that you can get the ou...

Topic: how to get a specified job name in routine ?

-1 indicates that "routine_TEST" is either not a valid job name (note that job names are case sensitive) or is not compiled. Therefore the job cannot be attached to the caller.

If the routine is written as a Transform Function, it can be run from its own Test utility (thus "stand alone" as per your requirement). Of course this is not really suitable as a long term solution. No matter which approach you take, you need to invoke calls from the DataStage API, partic...

You did get successfully connected (the log event shows the version number of MySQL, which has been retrieved from the database).

The SELECT statement that you then sent to MySQL has caused a fatal error to be generated, or there has been a network problem. You have some more diagnosis to do.

That's not how it works. Premium membership is how DSXchange is funded. If people undermine that mechanism, then the site will cease to exist. We do NOT want this to happen.

Why not get one for yourself? It's not expensive; less than $0.30 (Rs 12) per day. The benefits are well worth it.

No.

Decimal cannot contain character data, and "+" is a character.

The sign is stored by setting/resetting the sign bit, and the machine takes care of that for you.

Or you can make the field type VarChar and THEN you can store the sign.

You can't have both.

Are you sure that you can't import them, or is it only that the web service provider doesn't accept them in a SOAP request?

Have you tried importing WSDL from another provider? (The one you're using has some strange "standards".)

I assume so, because you say this behaviour manifests in some jobs but not all. What's different about these jobs?

I don't know, but imagine that it would. The thing about a vector is that every element has the same data type.
