I wouldn't make any such assumptions. Look into changing those values only if you have "issues", I wouldn't worry about that out of the box.

There's no way to know what's going on without access to your system, I'd wager. In your shoes the first thing I would try is exporting and re-importing the Sequence job so it get rebuild in the repository, see if that helps.

And would never reset a job after it ran, you lose too much diagnostic information that way. Reset it before it runs the next time, just ...

And by the way, masking != encoding. Something encoded can be decoded while masking is a one way street. A checksum is also a one way street, so not a good candidate for 'encoding'. If a database is involved in this process, you should check to see what functions they offer, for example Oracle has t...

Sorry, I've edited my earlier post to be clearer - it is the Merge stage that uses hashed files and is what is failing, not the Aggregator.

No, you didn't and it is never better. Always start your own thread so you have full control over its destiny and if you really feel the old thread adds value, link to it.
