DSXchange

Research and experiment with the Java Transformer stage, and read the Java Pack manual.

It's not stored unless it's explicitly saved.

Use Values Files with your Parameter Sets, and protect the higher environment projects.

Regular DataStage Connector stages (and, indeed, some older stage types) do read in batch ("arrays of rows" is the terminology) and, under the right circumstances (such as from a partitioned table), can do so in parallel processes, allowing for very large numbers of rows to be processed in...

You can specify different ports for every single service if you wish.

What happens if you shut down (rather than remove) the other version?

Why do you think you have to use the same port?

Incidentally, there is no version 9.2 (yet).

They are both brands in the IBM portfolio, useful and meaningful only for grouping "like" (as perceived by IBM marketing) products together.

WebSphere is supposed to contain all middleware products.

InfoSphere is supposed to contain all Information Management products except databases.

Not required if the password is the same as before.

It really removes duplicates. However, it is sorting each node separately so, to get the results you require, your data need to be partitioned based on the first sort key (or more, if that has fewer values than your number of nodes).

Double convert can only easily eliminate unwanted characters. The original requirement was to convert them to ".".

There are three or four resources that can be bottlenecks: CPU, memory, disk I/O bandwidth and network bandwidth. Performance Analyzer won't help you with the fourth of these, other than by helping to eliminate the other three as candidates.

I'd be guessing option (2). If SDKSequences were corrupt it wouldn't be returning anything at all.

As for tracing, search for any job that has an input link on which the hashed file name is SDKSequences.

You may need to run DirectoryAdmin and/or AppServerAdmin scripts to change the stored copies of the password.

While the Command window is open the history is accessible and can be saved on the engine. Once the Command window is closed any unsaved history is discarded.

There is, and I outlined it in my answer.
