Post by tathoong »

Current the my DataStage is running in unix AIX.

DataStage server edition version 7.0

I would like to know, for this version of DataStage. Is it able to run in clustering?

Welcome. :D

Search the forum. The concept of DataStage running clustered or at least in a clustered environment has been discussed several times in the past.

It really depends of what you mean by 'run in clustering'. While it can certainly run on a cluster, and can be made to fail-over from one node to another, it is far from cluster aware and so won't do so gracefully.

You will probably find it easier to move to Enteprise Edition of DataStage and use parallel jobs instead, or move to SOA Edition and run server jobs as real time services across the cluster.
