Fortunately, you don't really need to make any changes at all after adding CPUs to your system! You might experiment with changin your PX configuration to optimize balance, but you don't have to.

Does it read a DataSet? If you write a quickie job to read that DataSet and write to a peek stage, does that "hang" as well? If you change your runtime configuration to a 1-node file is the error symptom the same?

Re: Maximum performance available in DS server for a lookup

...what is the maximum speed available in DS server 7.5.2... The answer to that question is easy. the maximum speed is about 5 rows per second; it is impossible to get any more throughput on my 5-year old notebook. (Perhaps the sarcasm wasn't clear enough. If your question were transposed to vehicl...

I just tried to reproduce the problem here but ftp is disabled and sftp has different issues. Can you reproduce your problem with a simple fixed width file with just one integer column?

The equivalent of tee is to execute

Code: Select all

COMO ON {filename}
, then your commands, and

Code: Select all

COMO OFF
. This will create a sequential file called {filename} in the project &COMO& subdirectory. or use the dsjob command

That information is most likely not available on the internet - the release date of v5 predates Windows 2003 and the officially support 2003 version is v7 so you are going to have to talk with your support provider to get a definitive answer.

Or you could add a "MarkedForDeletion" flag column to your table and update it as necessary and perform a delete based in its value as well.

Hello Naveen,

please post in the correct forum, the Editor won't be able to assist in resolving at this issue.

The error message indicates a PX issue. I recall that there were some variations on causes for this error, so you should post the detailed error for more information.

Although server object code is portable the same does not apply to any c++ objects or PX jobs.
Step (1) is necessary
Step (2) means you need to recompile and bind your object library for customer routines
Step (3) looks like missing object code.

Did you do a FORCE recompile?
