There may not be much experience of this out there to share. Perhaps you'd be better off pinging your official support provider.

If you can shut everything DataStage down, rename the current mount point, create the new mount point with the original name and move the projects over, there would be nothing you needed to change, UV or otherwise.

Server is way more forgiving than PX and PX can choke on things that Server can handle, like unmatched quotes or embedded delimiters. Have you checked your file for anything of that nature? Open the file in vi and type ":set list" to show control characters, anything odd show up then? Perh...

OK, that changes things slightly. Jobs in Version Control projects are not compiled. And 'no design time information' means it can't find the actual job design, which is further confirmed by the RT_CONFIG error. Have you tried what Ray suggested, see if it behaves differently? You migh also try manu...

Run the following query from the Administrator for the first three jobs to get their names:

Code: Select all

SELECT CATEGORY,NAME FROM DS_JOBS WHERE JOBNO = '9621';
Then again for 9391 and 9190, then try recompiling them and see if that helps.

For 8.x I'm not entirely sure but I would think it would depend on the 'something'. And why would you just back up one table? Back up the database.

You can execute it from wherever you like. If you're asking where it lives, a 'find' should turn it up easily but I imagine it's in the $DSEngine/bin directory like most things of that nature.
