Of course it's possible to be contiguous. You could run just a single partition. Beyond that you can not guarantee contiguity unless you can also guarantee precisely that there are precisely the same number of rows in every partition. And even then, the Surrogate Key Generator stage is not really th...

So it's clear that uv -admin -info is not able to contact the dsrpcd service through the ipcs mechanism, apparently due to a file being missing from the /unix directory. Therefore the command reports that DataStage is not running. It's now time to take that evidence to your official support provider...

Welcome aboard. "Account" is the same as "project". You are apparently supplying an invalid project name (they are case sensitive) or the client in question can access the domain machine but not the engine machine. Check your client's hosts file (%WINNT_ROOT%\System32\drivers\etc...

Get yourself a discipline management device, such as a baseball bat.

Good. I wondered about that, but the site where I'm working does not have QualityStage.

The obvious question to ask is why?

That said there are only three steps you need to script:
(1) check that no DataStage processes are running or clients connected
(2) stop the engine then wait for a short interval (maybe 2 minutes)
(3) start the engine

You can use a BASIC Transformer stage in a parallel job. To determine whether the value in InLink.code is in a particular range you can use Oconv(InLink.code, "R700,709;800,849;860,867;870,876;880,899") This will return the original value if code falls in any of those ranges, or "&quo...

I suspect thje problem is highlighted by the "ipcs: 0515-001 No valid name list found in /unix. " messages - the uv -admin -info command is unable to communicate with the processes.

Can you please execute the following command?

What are the data types? What are the data volumes? There's a really elegant solution using "R" conversion in Oconv(), but you would need to use a BASIC Transformer stage or server job to take advantage of this. Otherwise (if you can't or won't use a BASIC Transformer stage or server job),...

You can perform the same hacks that they performed.

Do you have the Java PACK ?

Please expand on what you mean by "Europe and Asia Pacific language character set".

Why " - 8 HOURS " ?

And why 15 months after the question was posed?

Keys are allocated in blocks. If not all keys in a block are used (due to slight variations in the number of rows per partition) they are discarded.

That DOES NOT MATTER. Surrogate keys provide only uniqueness. They are not - and should not be - guaranteed to be contiguous.

I recall (whether accurately or not) that there are scripts with 7.5 for changing the itag without needing to reinstall. Check the scripts directory within DSEngine.
