1. Why? 2. It's just SQL. ...it has some keys that aren't easy to work with, but in the end, it's an rdbms table.

The old DRS stage is there too.........I haven't tried it, but it's there....it's probably just not on the actual palette...but open the Stages tree and browse server, and you'll see both. So your Jobs should just import as usual...then you can evaluate the DRS Connector independently and decide if ...

The Web Services stages, which allow DataStage to invoke a basic Web Service (to be a SOAP based Web Service client) are available in both Server and EE Jobs, and have been since their inception in the 7.x timeframe. Deploying DataStage Jobs (again, Server or EE) "as" a Service requires a ...

whew....that's a huge topic....do you mean xml files that you might read and parse and transform and create using DataStage? ...or for some other purpose? Info Server is not tooling for managing or creating xml models or designs...for that, tools like xmlSpy or xmlOxygen (and many others) are out th...

Hi Karthik... What is your goal in all of this? There are lots of tried and true techniques for doing things in DS, with UV (or not).....and much of that, as has been said, can be found in the forums in posts over the years..... but we'll all be able to provide better answers, and quite possibly bet...

In today's current 8.5, a combination of techniques are typically used.... You can establish "status" viewing priveleges, so that users can only see terms with a certain status, and as Vincent notes, you can hide entire categories or sub-categories with viewing permissions. Of course, the ...

Did you resolved this? The Extensions are defined with just about "anything you want" as the source and target.....the mostly likely would be tables and/or columns that your ETL tool is processing. Import those as usual, with Import/Export Manager from modeling tools or BI tools or ODBC or...

Ok....cool.......not sure exactly how you combined the "chunks" into one link, but let us know if you need thoughts on resolving it. Certainly, with multiple output links, the document only gets loaded once, and then the xpath on each link will shred the rows for each particular node, as d...

The service doesn't like what you are sending it...could be a whole lot of reasons for that.....did you import the wsdl directly? are you building the SOAP envelope yourself?

Well..it increased by 50%, but the document sizes overall are absolutely tiny........ so...what else to look for? hard to say...I'd check for things like: a) are you doing lots of your own detailed custom xpath or xslt work inside the Stage, or is it just /../../../../text() types of strings in your...

For added detail, what is the physical size of the documents that are read by each Job?....the numbers of records it generates is important too, as you have noted, but it would be interesting to know the raw size of each document. The xmlInput Stage is going to load that whole thing up into memory.....

Multiple Instances don't really apply here. There are lots of things you can do with multiple instances, one of them being a 'convenience' ...to have one job design, and run it (say) 15 times concurrently, passing different job parameters to each. Based on what we've been discussing, going to Server...
