You can CALL the storedprocedure without even importing into to Datastage.
You can use UserDefined query as {CALL SP} or with an argument passed in it as {CALL SP(?)}.

Have you tried Iconv("Link.Input", "DYMD[2,2,2]")?
Or you can even try the same previous option by concatinating "/" in middle. StageVariable = Link.Input[1,2]:"/":Link.Input[3,2]:"/":Link.Input[5,2], and use this stage variable for conversion.

But it complains that the source is in MM/DD/YY format. What is your target stage?
Use

Code: Select all

 Iconv("Link.Date", "D2/")
to convert it into Date fromate from String. If it is a database stage, you can use To_date() that avaialble in database SQL statement.

What is the exact message it gives you?

Hi Vinod, This has been discussed several times. User dsadm, login to DS directory - CleanUp Resources. Under 'Locks', you may find the jobs name. Select the item under 'Process' corresponding to that PID. Now select Go by process in Locks and ReleaseAll locks. Else you can go for unix Kill or DS.TO...

Not all stages use scratch disk space extensivly. Sometimes it may not use at all, other than buffering operation. So it also depends on the operators that involved in the Job.

Ask your DBA to connect to a database from a command prompt without using user id and password (the way he wants from datastage). You can follow the same process. :wink:

If the data is not sorted, you may need to include even a sort stage. It again depends on the number of duplicated the input contain, and the data of the lookup (either its a sparse or Lookup fileset). If it is a lookupfileset, and if you have less records per group (duplicates) and with simple tran...
