I have seen similar problems in 5.1 with a couple of possible causes:
- Does your job have a transform which uses routines? If a routine accepts an input field as an argument and then modifies this argument you could get an abnormal termination. In version 5 the arguments are passed by reference, not by value. It is safer to save the input argument to a local variable within the routine and then change that local variable. Contact Ascential technical support for more details.
- Are you starting multiple jobs at the same time? Try adding a small sleep before some of your jobs and retest to see if this causes the problem. I've occasionally seen an abnormal terminations when starting up 4 or more jobs simultaneously.
