Welcome aboard. :D

As far as Oracle is concerned, a DataStage job is just another client application.
If the diagnosis is "connection dead" the only thing you can do is find out why. The Oracle driver has been successfully invoked by DataStage - you can tell by the square-bracketed entries in the error message - which indicates that the problem is outside of DataStage - in the network or in Oracle itself.
