It's all stored in the local project repository.

However some of it is also stored in XMETA.

You should be able to recover the XMETA side using the SyncProject utility within ISA Lite, once you've imported from the export file.

The best reference is the chapter for each stage type in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide. Put them "side by side" mentally. You'll also find the statement that one has been deprecated in favour of the other; take that statement with the proverbial grain of salt. The big difference (for ...

If you restore the system backups of the projects on a system with DataStage installed, you are most of the way there. You will need to adjust the pointers to system tables (using VERIFY.SQL) and that may be enough to allow you to export from those projects using DataStage Designer. Those exports ca...

Learn patience. Don't push. You waited barely over an hour, at a time when many members are sleeping.

DSXchange is an all-volunteer site whose members post if, when and as they can. "Pushing" is considered offensive.

For each "other" column which value from all the records in the group do you want associated with the grouped value? Maybe you could look at a "fork join" job design. But think, how would you achieve the results in SQL? You can't. For exactly the same reasons you can not achieve ...

The issue is probably a difference between the two repositories. Use SyncProject (part of ISA Lite) to reconcile the differences.

I have already given my (complete) answer. Get yourself a premium membership so that you can read it. Premium membership is inexpensive (less than Rs12 per day) and helps to defray the hosting and bandwidth costs of DSXchange.
