How are you checking? You can't use "the same user" and check from the command line, you need to check from a job's environment. Take any job and add an "ExecSH" before-job call to "ulimit -a" and s ... Actually the abort we are encountering is in 'PROD' environment. C...

That's controlled by the operating system via the ulimit function. Have a chat with your SysAdmin and see if they're willing to bump that up for your user. ... Thanks for a quick response. But, the current ulimit function is set to unlimited. I beleive this error is more specific to Datastage and i...

I'm curious, what 'project setting values' are you fetching in your script and how are you using them? The script actually grabs all the values at the Project level and tries to execute the 'DSJob command'. The default value for 'Warning counts' is 50, I beleive unless and untill one specifies it at...

Project warning count environment variable

In order to run our application we have a shell script that actually grabs the project setting values set at the project level and executes the 'dsjob' command.

DS Load Method

Hi,

I was wondering to know when we use 'Write method' as Load, does it create 'Table level locks' on the table during the process of loading. If somebody could shed more light on this, it would be great.

Thanks
