Intergrate Source Control Grayed Out

I'm preparing to migrate from v9 to v11 and I've gone through the install process and can use the multi manager to switch between the two environments in designer. I'm now in Information Server Manager and I'm trying to Integrate Source Control but the option is grayed out for me in v11??? I had it ...

I know this is an old thread and you probably already got it figured out but I'm stumbling along the same path. I just found this link that I noticed that you need to single-quote the replace command http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSPT3X_2.1.2/com.ibm.swg.im.iis.iisinfsv.assetint.doc/...

How To: Attach file to a web service to upload?

Can anyone tell me how to upload a file through a web service? There's not thing special about the file, it could be a csv, an image, or whatever. The web service is just a glorified FTP that I should be able to upload any file to. This is what I've started with: Folder Stage ---> Transformer ---> W...

Web Services Client HTML Encoded

When sending an XML Output stage document to a web services stage, on the other end the input message is being received as HTML Encoded. I'm guessing if my input message wasn't an XML doc then it wouldn't HTML encode it. In my web service client the input message column is defined as SQL Datatype: V...

Oracle Connector: Generated SQL + Where clause

So this might be a stupid question, but I'm checking out the new Oracle Connector after a datstage stage version upgrade. In the old Oracle OCI stage you could chose generate SQL and also specify a WHERE clause. This new oracle stage doesn't seem to have the same functionality?!? There's a lot that ...

I don't have a solution but your post peeked my interest. I too use CyberArk. And CyberArk has the ability to integrate into many applications that when it changes in CyberArk, CyberArk will update the applications as well. Are you trying to have CyberArk update parameter sets values? If so that wou...

If you're writing a routine to query tables to get their volume data information, why not just write a server job and use the database stages to execute the custom query and then send the rows to an audit table or whatever? You can write a generic server job that you pass in all the parameters you'd...

How to: Hash File Where Used?

I've inherited a project where the original author loved hash files and would reference the same hash files across many jobs. Is there a way I can find all the jobs that reference a hash file by name?

Found the answer:

So the code for test1 looks like this:

Code: Select all

deffun test2(Arg1) calling "DSU.test2"

How to nest custom routines

How do you reference a custom routine within another custom routine?

test2

Code: Select all

Ans = 2
test1

Code: Select all

Ans = 1
Ans = test2()
I would expect the result to be '2' but I get a:

Code: Select all

Array 'test2' never dimensioned.

In datastage this is defined as a timestamp to preserve the time. [Destination 1] CSV file. Columns specified as a varchar(10). In the transformer I do a LEFT(OCONV...
