Hi Gurus!
Some of our Job controllers don't start. The last line in the log is Environment variable settings. It hangs at that point and I have to kill them.
Can you help me ?
Thank You

That's not enough information for us to do anything with.
Do you have a DataStage admin at your company to ask?

After you kill it and then reset it, is there an additional entry in the log like "From previous run..." ?

well, I'd start with the basics...
Does this happen to any other job?
Is this DEV, TEST or PROD?
Does it happen to anyone else running the same job?
Look at the project, go look at the file permissions on the RT_xxx#### files.
Go look at the SIZE of your xmeta mounts.
Look at the size of your project mount.
This is a windows box sooo... I don't have a lot of help to give you (other than go to Linux, haha).

Does your job include any before-job or before-stage subroutines that might be invoked and not return? If so, add some DSLogInfo() calls to these so that you can tell whether the job got that far.
Otherwise please describe what the sequence job does. Tell us the first-to-be-executed activities in the design. Add Logging messages to these activities to determine which ones trigger.
