DSXchange

And don't forget Version Control!

Yes, true... bitmap image.

Not sure what you mean - it executes as a batch and I've used it to dump jpegs of all jobs in a project... all unattended. Some commands recognize the fact they are running under batch control and disable or default the user prompts that you would get running the same command from the command line. ...

Yup, just like that.

And make sure you understand that RoutineActivityName in Ray's example is the name of the preceeding Routine Activity stage itself, not the routine it is calling.

Simple enough with a Nested Condition stage. Have it check the return status and either go down a link that runs your job or a second link that bypasses it. Both should end at a Sequencer stage set to 'Any' if the job stream needs to continue.

You don't need to recompile it again unless you live and die inside the Designer. You should be using the Director to Reset the job rather than recompiling it after it aborts.

I know we can promote the jobs as READ-ONLY with version control. But not sure whether the same can be achieved if we are exporting and importing the dsx file. Not without extra steps to update their 'Read Only' flag after you import, which will be a pain and error prone. That or setup the test and...

B should notice if A aborts, I would think.

Best course of action would be for you to test it on your version and operating system so you know what happens. A small pair of test jobs, the pipe feeder aborts itself after X rows...

I haven't had any luck. While there are backup scripts (which I currently use) that will automate the exporting of all projects on a server, they only allow .dsx exports. You get some very odd (and very misleading) error if you have the option to export as XML checked in the Manager. Unless someone ...

Kim Duke has put together a bat file that does basically that. You'll find it here on his website, under the 'Scripts' section.

That drop-down list is a little "buggy" and won't always show you the tnsname entries correctly, especially if you maintain them by hand.

Simple solution is to type the tnsname you want to use, there's no need to actually pick it from the list.

... or you could just wait for Ray to tell you.

Do an Exact Match search for 'Imageshack' in this forum, you'll find instructions on how you can include a picture of your job in a post.

I was always under the impression that your network infrastructure played a bigger role than just the number of jobs in the project. For example... Our biggest project here has 3,631 jobs in it right now. Opening the Director into the Category with the most amount of jobs in it (121) takes only 13 s...

Your problem is not in the query, but with at least one of the configuration options you've specified. Cut them back to the bare minimum and see if it works then. Would guess for a wire driver that would mean: Description=DataDirect Oracle Wire Protocol LogonID=uid Password=pwd HostName=oracleserver...
