Ok......assuming that you mean by "link" that you created an Extension Mapping using the user interface, and then exported that, your technique is sound --- it should have worked, provided that the original extension Mapping you created in the web interface gave you the lineage that you ex...

Interestingly enough, it does support multiple input links...but I can't tell from looking at it whether or not it allows those multiple links to be controlled under the same transaction. I'll have to review the doc and also find time to test it. In the meantime, I like Arnd's answer. ; )

I can't remember (nor have tried) whether the new 8.7 edition of the DTS supports multiple input links....it does certainly support movement of a message from the Work Queue (as it might have been loaded in an upstream MQ Connector) into another queue as a transaction....but "multiple queues&qu...

Hi John. The overall BI model can be hard to understand...I know I've had difficulty when doing istool exports and trying to identify various BI objects.... Unfortunately I don't entirely understand your question...not sure what you mean in your second sentence about creating a manual map... ? Ernie

why bother? A transform derivation is a WHOLE lot easier.....

'<xml? version="1.0" ?><myRoot>' : myMQoutputLink.message : '</myRoot>'

done.

...try first concatenating another fake root around it, and then retrieve all the "root" elements as the first repeating node...

Somewhere I have notes on the architecture, but I am travelling this week and won't have access to them. I believe that you will accomplish the most by carefully working with your test scenarios and playing with the settings. Increasing the instances is generally the best thing that you can do, so t...

There are quite a few buffers involved with ISD and some of them evolved over time and over multiple releases to handle different parts of the traffic load. I don't remember off-hand some of the exact rules, but the queue (in its own tab) with its wait time, used to be at the Services tier, as it al...

Last I checked, it did (cascade from the sequence to the Jobs it calls), but it was several releases ago. I suspect that it still works that way though.

Thanks for letting us know! I haven't played with every combination of role/function that there is, but I think I like the fact that only a Common Metadata Administrator can perform imports.

As Ray said...it's not true that there are no new benefits for Server sites....Server jobs received the new xml stage, and both are utilized by the Operations console and participate fully with lineage and impact analysis functions in Metadata Workbench.....yes....there are things that didn't trickl...

perhaps...but if you craft the solution yourself, you can pass the total number of expected messages for each file in the header....

...been a long time since I've played in detail with the various options on writing to a queue, but my initial gut reaction would be to break up the data on my own, so that I can have explicit control of what is happening, and then feed a column value of my own making into the Correlation ID (for a ...

Craig is correct, it's fully documented .....it's an option that you pass on the command line when you start the job, much as you would click the check box for collecting it (in the run job dialog) if you ran the job from the DS Client.

I would either (a) evaluate the characters to see if they are just "noise" or garbage, and if so, transform the offensive strings myself to hex 20's (blanks), or (b) if they are meaningful for the final application, tranform them into their formal escape sequence. You'll have to look those...
