All the developers have admin login as it is windows usr/pwd. Let's clarify something. I don't mean a login that get's them into the Administrator client, everyone has that. I mean do they have the 'admin' password - the password for the 'dsadm' user? Most of the dangerous stuff is disabled unless ...

'You' in this case would be your company not you you.

I just mean a mechanism for distributing software to remote PCs without having to go to each individually to install stuff. A 'Push' system, like the one we use - ROVA. Do you have anything like that?

All the developers have admin login That's a problem. I would like developers to access designer and director and not Administrator. Seriously, remove the Administrator tool from their PC. If you have any kind of enterprise software delivery system, it can be done rather easily. What they giveth, t...

I'd just like to get one job, running all by its lonesome, to not core dump on me.

I think it's a great descriptive moniker for the phenomenon. :D

Uninstall it from their PC. Other than that... [shrug]

As long as they don't have the 'admin' userid / password, what kind of things are you worried about them doing there?

I'll try that, right now I'm fairly certain it is set the same as all other servers. Odd thing with this was 7.5.2 was installed September '06 and ran 'fine' until mid February when the problems started. No-one on the infrastructure side can tell me what, if anything, changed. I've also asked if the...

Do you have access to the Enterprise Edition and therefor Parallel jobs? Or 'just' Server jobs as you've marked the post? They are totally different animals. Other than reading through the manuals, there should be a Tutorial cdrom amongst the media your company received. Use it to install some examp...

If you scroll down to the next to last post here, you'll see what is in the manuals for installing everything on Windows.

Also, the Server component can live on most flavors of UNIX. As noted in the other post, this is in the Installation and Upgrade Guide pdf in your Docs directory.

There are functions available to handle 'Julian' dates. Use them to convert your 'last day of the month' to julian format, add 1 to that date (which will add 1 day) and then convert it back to an external date.

In other words, something had changed - the manner in which you logged on!

There are all kinds of odd issues from using 'Omit' that we've seen here...

That was all from a job that wasn't causing problems before the 'downgrade'. I've just rerun the job noted earlier and it is still behaving in a very similar manner as before - aborting after producing an amount of XML: Message: DODSLDHAssetTerms..XML_Output_Ldh_terms: At row 14139141, link "Mo...

The saga continues. After failing to reach any conclusions with IBM Support as to what might be causing 7.5.2 to misbehave on this server and in an effort to isolate the issue, we rolled back to 7.5.1A - a version we use on three other servers with no issues. Took a full export from another machine ...

Would have been nice to have sample data that matched reality a little better. You can still sort, yes. Just to beat this horsey a little longer... Assign a record number to each row in a transformer, @INROWNUM will work nicely. Then use a Sort stage to sort ascending on your key field and descendin...

So, from your eample: Member_key Id_key 1234 23 1234 24 1234 25 You would like the Id_key of 23 to be stored for Member_key 1234? You've said you've done an order by, now you just need to make the secondary sort descending. Something like: ORDER BY Member_key, Id_key desc That should make them arriv...
