Years ago, when we set up our project and we were working with DS 3.6 we also had a lot of problems with Aggregator Stage, especialy when hat to process more than a certain number of rows. It crashed every time at the same place, a certain amount of rows. In most case we eliminated then the Aggregat...

The job fails every time in our case. But since the results are correct and there are other pressing priorities, I am not paying too much attention to it. Will try to enable the tracing and see over the weekend if time permits. We are running Oracle 8.1 on Win2K. YN --- David Barham wrote: > DSP.Clo...

DSP.Close is the routine in a plug-in that is called to close it. In your case, it would appear that it is closing your ORAOCI8 plugin. I dont have an answer for you. I can only commiserate as we frequently get the same error in one particular suite of jobs. Still, I am glad to hear that we are not ...

Hi Gopal, We faced a similar problem in an earlier project. The jobs used to fail sometimes and sometimes worked just fine. Infact there was no pattern. We were also having the create file and clear file before writing option checked. The only diff was had the create file options unchanged (dynamic)...

We have different experiences. I forgot exactly which log holds the data it uses to restart, but it does hold onto that data. I have had to query it in the past. I have also had to use the functionality before at a client. It was helpful during the development and test phase of the project, but was ...

Exactly. Our corporate organization uses Informatica as their standard ETL tool and we decided on DataStage. IMHO, you are always better off coding specific restart capabilities that are aware of the data being loaded and the methodologies being used to load that data, rather than relying on some ge...

This overstates the abilities of Informatica, Power Center achieves the re-load by re-executing the original SQL and (assuming you have been logging the load) not writing until it reached the same point where the original load failed. It relies on the returned data set being the same in both cases a...
