DSXchange

You can take it to 1000MB in uvconfig. Not that great a gain really. Read the manual dsdskche.pdf (in your Docs folder) for full information.

You still need to determine who your support provider is.

In the next release, yes. In the current release no. C'est la vie.

How about a pivot preceding the lookup so that each lookup is only retrieving one name?

No. It must be ordered separately.

It's also in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide, which you are more likely to have open if you're designing parallel jobs.

The best advice I can give is "don't touch it". Use the Import tools. Any time you touch the keyboard you risk introducing error. Table definitions imported through Orchestrate (orchdbutil) seem to be more robust for parallel jobs than those imported through plug-in stages (such as OCI). I find that...

I don't think this is possible without introducing some boundary, such as a Modify stage, to rename one (or both) of the distinct names back to the single name you require is separate Data Sets. Duplication of column names on outputs of Transformers appears not to be permitted.

Curious. When you used the Copy Rule Set option did it actually copy? That is, did you see another rule set file created? Was anything different in the CTL file in the two scenarios? (If you don't want to go back to the failed scenario because you have one that works, that's OK. I trust that you rep...

Welcome aboard! :D

Even though you think the bttemp files are of no help, can you please post them here (if they're not too long) so we can also take a peek?

Use a Cycle with only one value in the cycle.

Welcome aboard. :D The correct answer is no. However, DataStage BASIC routines can be used in conjunction with parallel jobs in two scenarios; as Routine activities in job sequences that also invoke parallel jobs, and called from server job components in server shared containers in parallel jobs.

It could be done quite straightforwardly using DataStage BASIC. I refrained from answering in this vein earlier because the question is posted in the parallel forum. The DataStage BASIC (possibly a custom job control routine) would execute a UNIX command (such as find or tree) to return a treewalk o...

There was a paper presented at IBM Information Integration Live last November in Las Vegas on using DataStage EE in a grid environment. Can you get access to the papers from this conference?

The parameters last used are in the log "job started" entry for the previous run. Before the job starts they're also in the RT_STATUSxxx table for the job. Possibly easier to retrieve from there.
