It's definitely something after the folder stage, I just don't know what. I tested with an ereplace() function after my folder stage to strip out \" and they're still there.

OK, the \ escaping each double quote makes sense. How do I stop it from doing that? Like I mentioned, when I'm testing "FolderStage --> Sequential File" I don't have that in my output, but "FolderStage --> RTI Output Stage" my SoapUI response contains the escape slashes and \r\n ...

REST Response Contains Slash Appended to All Elements

I'm new to REST binding and put together my first test. The results data-wise I'm getting is fine, but I don't understand why it has the appended \r\n and extra slash characters all throughout the response. Is this normal or what controls that? I've tried both attaching the ISD_Output stage at the r...

DB2 Connector Schema

I'm new to DB2 connectivity from DataStage using the DB2 Connector Stage and running into an issue with schema qualifiers. The existing SQL in our DataStage jobs don't require schema qualifiers on tables (Netezza). The SQL runs against the database table list as defined in the ODBC.ini file database...

Are you connecting via a tunnelling protocol, like Citrix? ... Myself (Client) and the IIS Server are on the same network, no tunneling. When I watch the "top" command, it's continuous "uvsh" and "sleep" commands at the top of the list. So it may just be our system is ...

Frequent DataStage Designer Hang/Freeze

Curious if this is normal or if we have an issue that could be resolved... I've noticed for a while now on our Production IIS 9.2 Linux server when using DataStage Designer it will frequently freeze/hang. I'll be typing a derivation when Designer hangs, then a few seconds later everything I typed qu...

DashDB Cloud ODBC Configuration

Looking for someone who can show me through personal experience how they configured DataStage 9.1 to connect to a Cloud DashDB instance? I'm following their documentation but having issues or some things aren't specifically clear. For example, I've got the DashDB Linux driver installed, but there ar...

Can I Use XMETA to list all hashed file names?

Is there an XMETA repository query that can give me a unique list of all hashed tables referenced in hashed stages across all of our DataStage jobs? Or maybe an alternate method? I want to exclude system hashed tables, only hashed files put into the "File Name" field in hashed file stages

XML Omit Null Value Elements w/ Hierarchy

I'm working with an embedded element and I want the entire structure omitted if the child element is NULL. I have "Omit Null Elements" checked, but it's only removing the child element and leaving the parent element. Is there a way to code this or the XSD to remove both the child and paren...

HA! Saw another member post about runtime performance issues with the XML stage and discovered the "enable logging" had an impact. I followed suit and disabled logging in my XML stage and the 17min runtime dropped to 45secs :?
