OK, kind of the opposite issue. "It worked" - did you check the job's log from the Director or does that mean the links are green in the Designer? Didn't abort <> worked ok, necessarily, hence the question. :wink:

Regardless of your query logic, you must follow the lookup rules: 1) Every column used in the 'where' must be marked as a key. 2) ? bind variables are positional so order your keys to match. 3) All columns defined in the stage must be selected in your SQL. Ancillary rule: 4) If you need to use a key...

The only thing that is safe to run 'continuously' is an RTI enabled / SOA / WISD job. I wouldn't even consider anything else. At the very least, give it a breather, a chance to stop and restart again - for example, run it over 'business hours' and then let it sit idle for some period at night... or ...

No, DataStage doesn't but your Oracle database will definitely have limits configured in. Check with your DBA as there can be limits at both the listener, db and session levels. Remember, each stage is a connection, multiply that by the number of nodes you are running and account for any other jobs ...

So... you have a list in a text file of uncompiled jobs and you want to know how to find their category? :?
