DSXchange

Yes, I was hoping that would still work, but when you re-start the installation program, you can add tiers or add products, but unfortunately it does not bring you back to that MQ plug-in checkbox.

During installation the checkbox 'Install WebSphere MQ Plug-in' (WebSphere MQ Server) was left unchecked. However we do need the MQ stage (not the new connector). How can we add this to the current installation? (Information Server 8.5)

Does SubVersion show a history which version of a job was used in each environment (especially production)?

Does anyone know if CVS does the same thing as well? I think SubVersion is not certified with Information Server?

Unfortunately, I can't find a file with a name that looks anything like that.

Does anybody have experience using Sybase on a Windows 2008 R2 DataStage server? We installed DataStage 8.5 and Sybase 15.0 open client drivers (32 bit). When trying to import plugin metadata for the Sybase OC, I get an error message "Unable to initialize plug-in", when trying to run a job...

Probably it will end up being my solution, but I was hoping for something less manual.

We are migrating from DataStage 7.5 to DataStage 8.5. In DS 7.5 Production system we have around 100 jobs with names like JobName%rel25.4.1 (released jobs from an older version of datastage?). We can import these jobs into DS 8.5, but when trying to compile them, we get an error message "Error:...

We are currently using DataStage 7 and are about to upgrade to 8.5 We are now using Version Control to promote jobs to different environments and as an overview for compliancy so we can see which jobs where in which environment on which time. Also to be able to go back to the previous version of a j...

Is there an easy way to define the derivations for an aggregator stage. A lot of times we have jobs where the input of the aggregator stage is a collection of a lot of columns, and the output is the same set of columns where a few columns are grouped on, and the rest are summarized. This requires a ...

Does that mean that Windows Server 2003 is the only windows version that is supported for a Information Server server?

Can Information Server DataStage v8 be used on Windows 7 (server + client)?

The only thing that I can find on the IBM website is that the minimum requirement for IS Server on Windows is Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2. But that doesn't specify anything about Windows 7.

Is it possible to change the default project NLS setting for new projects? When we create new projects the default setting automatically is "ISO8859-1", but we want this to be "NONE". How can we change this default, so it doesn't have to be changed manually in Administrator after...

We've worked on this with IBM resulting in an a patch for the Oracle OCI stage. PATCH NAME:patch_JR33405 COMPONENT: Server PROBLEM REPORTED/Implementation Details: Oracle OCI Stage doesn't extract CHAR datatype properly when NLS_LANG is set to American_America.AL32UTF8 So apparently our settings wer...

I expect we indeed should stick with the IBM recommendation for NLS_LANG. But how about the NLS settings for the stages? What settings should we use for those? And do you or anyone have a pointer to some kind of documentation to read more about this? I feel like I'm running around in the dark and as...

I am working on the migration from DataStage 7.0 to DataStage 8.0 I am having some NLS-related problems. Now IBM is suggesting to change the NLS_LANG setting for all projects, but I don't know what the impact of that is, and also I don't know what is the correct value for the NLS parameters accordin...
