You must start listener and process metabroker if you want capture the data, I suggest you to start listener and process metabroker not from services but from the StartService.bat that you found in the directory of MetaStage.

Process metadata

We are in development for one of our project. And would like to test process metadata (generated by the DataStage jobs). I have some test jobs in DataStage and MetaStage in running in Proxy mode. Would we be able to capture process metadata this way?

Thanks...Kamal

I have heard that it is better to set the timeout value to "9999" than to use the "do not time out" flag. fyi, Doug -----Original Message----- From: Rui Soares [mailto:rui.soares@novabase.pt] Sent: Monday, November 11, 2002 9:25 AM To: datastage-users@oliver.com Subject: Timeout - unirpcservices Hi ...

Hi Kamal, you have only to be a little tricky and like experiments. Mayby you can copy your metadatafile directly from Word to ACCESS. If you have DataStage for Windows you can read out then the metadata to the manager and use it with your flat file format. If you have DataStage for Unix you can tra...

Another mechanism, if the number of characters is fixed (for example there are three characters in "567"), is to use substrings. Then a constraint expression might have the form: empno[1,3] = "567" or Left(empno,3) = "567" For longer strings this will be more efficient than Matches operator. ----- O...

The operator in DataStage is Matches. You need to construct a pattern that uses either "..." or "0X" as the wildcard (see the BASIC manual on MATCHES for more information). For example, a constraint expression in DataStage might be: empno Matches "5670X" or empno Matches "567..." Either of these exp...

Using a global variable

Hi all, Can we have a global variable defined for a couple of jobs? The first staging load job will extract a value from the database and store it in a global variable so that all the subsequent jobs can use that variable for loading the detail tables. Best regards, Wilcy With luv n thots Wilcy

In a sequence, drop in a RoutineActivity that logs a fatal error message, such as should be in sdkUtilityUtilityAbortToLog. If executed this will cause the sequence to abort. Then point to it from a JobActivity with a link whose trigger with condition "Failed". The routine will be executed if the pr...

What I want is this: When a job in sequence A aborts I want A to abort, and then C to abort (and _not_ run B). However, what happens is that when a job aborts in sequence A, ...
