DSXchange

Did you read through install.sh as I suggested to determine how to specify the DataStage home directory?

A Metabroker is a specialized filter that can "translate" metadata from the form used by one tool into the form used by another tool. For example, if you import table definitions into DataStage using the Metabroker for ERwin, then the ERwin definitions are converted into a form that can be stored in...

Remove or rename /.dshome and any other hidden files in the / directory that relate to DataStage. Attempting an install then will engender a new installation, during which you should be prompted for the DS Engine directory's location (as per the installation instructions). At this time you can enter...

Thank you for posting the solution. It will help others in future. Had you mentioned that you were using RFC then possibly more accurately targeted answers could have been provided. But you found it yourself (kudos) and posted it here (more kudos).

It is in beta; one of my clients is involved.

There will be three phases of beta testing (roughly end April, May and June). Not so many beta sites for phase 1.

INDEX(string, search_string, occurrence) INDEX("I had to edit it", "it", 1) finds the first occurrence of "it" in the original string (at character position 12) and returns 12. INDEX("I had to edit it", "it", 2) finds the second occurrence of "it" in the original string (at character position 15) an...

Hey, Sri. My car won't go. Any idea why it is behaving thus? (You really do need to provide enough information to allow the volunteers who people this site to help.) It used to run fine before. What's changed? "Nothing" is not the correct answer. Have you exhausted disk space on some file system, fo...

Clearly you are NOT following the instructions exactly; you have varied the home directory for a start. As far as I can remember, you can specify a location for the Engine directory as a command line argument for the script. Read through the script and verify my memory. This causes the file /.dshome...

Import any table definition, load it into a parallel job, then choose "Show Schema". The schema defines the columns and their characteristics in a data set, and may also contain information about key columns.

Plus you labelled your post as Server and posted it on the Server jobs forum. So you got a server answer.

Correction

UniVerse and UniData only.

Director also has a search capability (the tool with the binoculars). You can, from the View menu, disable categories, and get all jobs in one large list; the search capability is then guaranteed to find your job (if it exists).
