DSXchange

We are planning to go from 11.5 to 11.7. Instead of upgrading in place, we are considering building new servers, (maybe slightly adjusting the architecture) and doing a free install. When we are ready to go live, export the projects, reimport to the new servers and move the disk over. This will allo...

We currently have 11.5 on a 2 server back end: - Engine Tier, - Services Tier (with WebSphere and DB2 for xmeta, dsodb, iadb,esdb, etc). We are looking to go to a 3 server back end: - Engine Tier - WebSphere/Services Tier - Database Tier My question is, is there any concerns about putting all the In...

Has anyone added Mainframe Jobs, Mainframe files, Shell Scripts and Scheduler objects into the IGC for lineage? We have mainframe jobs that create files on the Mainframe that are then Ftp'd down to unix, where shell scripts move/process them before calling DataStage jobs to load them into tables. Ou...

Thanks that was the problem.
Someone had created a project version of the DSODBConfig.cfg file for some unknown reason.

I have installed and got working the Operations Console and it is tracking information. However it is doing it for only 2 of 3 projects. One project even though it is running jobs, nothing is being captured in the Operational Console.
Is there a project specific setting I need to setup?

We are testing migrating from 8.5 to 11.3 and about 10% of our jobs are getting the error: The following error occurred on the parallel engine: APT_Operator::UnControlledTermination: From: UnControlledTermination via exception.. (CC_PXAccessor::startItemInternal, file CC_PXAccessor.cpp, line 1,995) ...

We are in the process of upgrading to 11.3.1 from 8.5 and management has asked us to consider moving from AIX to Linux. Our server staff has indicated that similar CPU PVU on AIX vs Intel on Linux, the performance of AIX is 1.5 to 2 times faster. Has anyone else moved from AIX to Linux and noticed p...

It ran this way for 10 months (5 days/week) so it was repeating. However when I manually ran the job this morning it did not have the same problem. I am going to see if the problem reappears in the production run tonight. I did not make any changes to the job. I did clear out the log (it was 1.1GB) ...

The shared container is run in a Server job

I have Server Shared Container that perform a sort in it. The Sort is producing a "INFO" message for every row processed that provides no information: 330876905 INFO Fri Jul 11 03:07:12 2014 jLandMF025_POD_ALL_200_TNCB101A_1File.DID_LandMF025_2_POD__fzb_TNCB101_2.scServerROWCOUNTGeneric.So...

I have a simple 3 job Sequencer that runs 3 Parallel jobs in order. Between the second and third job running there has been a delay that goes from a minute, to up to 40 minutes. During this time the AIX box is fairly free, but still there is a long delay between one job ending and the next job start...

vishal I am in a new environment and we are just starting to get to the point where we use the process I identified in my first diagram. At this point I am not sure how well it will work for real. I am hoping it will work well, but it definitely is not the way I would like it to. To setup TFS, in Vi...

Have you looked into the Complex Flat File stage?

I have been working with InfoSphere Information Server Manager (ISM) which connects with MicroSoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) via the Eclipse plugin. I have read the documentation for Information Server Manager and it seems that I can use TFS to store source, but I cannot use it to migrate to othe...

Based upon my research you have told me what I expected. :( Basically there is no way to automate for ease of use the updating of the passwords. If the password was the same, I could copy the new password encrypted text string from one ParameterSet ValueSet to another at the Unix level. However that...
