@RECORD

Post by Poovalingam »

Hi,
I have a requirement to get the list of jobs using a particular column. I got some results using @RECORD field in DS_JOBOBJECTS tables. I got the query from dsxchange only. I have a general question in this. Does DS_JOBOBJECTS RECORD will have all the column details of all the stages of server and parallel jobs?

Also please tell me if there are options in XMETA to solve this requirement?

Thanks & Regards,
Poovalingam.

@RECORD is a system variable that contains the entire record (as a dynamic array) from a DataStage hashed file. DS_JOBOBJECTS is a hashed file.

There is no metadata associated with @RECORD. The structure of records in DS_JOBOBJECTS varies depending on what kind of job object is being stored. Metadata is - deliberately - incomplete.
