If the inputs are identically hash partitioned and sorted, then it will work. Therefore I must assume that there was some difference between the inputs in your case in how the partition and/or sort keys were specified. We checked it many times, we did not have any discrepancy in the Hash/Sort order...

Even after Bryceson posts his findings about what's in the common metadata repository there are yet other things that will need to be cleaned up in the local repository, among them entries in the table of job objects (DS_JOBOBJECTS), and possibly references to ...

I earlier used transformer stage only to do this. But when it was possible for a modify stage do it, I changed it.

I am not sure why DataStage gives this error when it is performing the same function.

Thanks.

Hi Ray,

You mentioned 27 Millions per node is this a standard? in that case will 20 MB per node for a sort stage work?

Thanks
