DB trace shows a select from non-exist MetaStage_Loc_Info

Post by asaf_arbely »

Hi Everyone,

DBAs reported this recurring Oracle error (942): a select from non existing table METASTAGE_LOC_INFO.

This faulty select statement is generated and called from DataStage jobs, but error is not reported in the DS log. It is found when a DB trace is activated by DBAs.

From reading earlier posts regarding this error, I looked for the operational metadata collection solution, but no - Project is not marked as "Generate operational metadata".

Did anyone was able to solve this issue?

thanks in advance,
Assaf

Not only is this findable on DSXchange by searching, it's also in the manuals and the IBM Information Center.

It makes me wonder why would one bother to answer, while providing no answer at all... :shock: Isn't it a waste of his time?

No, I did not find a solution in the DSXchange forum (but did search it).

My believe is that sharing knowledge makes you a greater man. Hiding it, makes you ...?!.

Think of the great value you could provide by simply directing me to the specific manual.

Sir, I am familiar with your contribution to this forum and respect it, for a very long time. Keep in mind that I'm too old for education.

Thank you!

I actually looked at this thread, and as noted in my original post, the DS project is not marked as "Generate operational metadata".

Am I missing something here?

I found some post outside of the DSXchange forum, suggesting to "set DS_NO_PROCESS_METADATA to 1".

I'll give it a try and update.

Regards,
Assaf
