DSXchange

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 quickly types out on the screen (rubberbanding effect). Or I'll click to open a stage and the screen fades/washes out and I get the Windows hourglass for a few seconds before it resumes. It seems to occur every few minutes and the freeze/hangs lasts several seconds. This doesn't happen on our Development/Test IIS 9.2 Linux server, so I'm assuming it's related to the increased activity on the Production server. If I check DSODB now, we have 68 jobs running, 38% CPU and and 40% Memory Usage. I would like to know if this is abnormal or normal? Wanted to get some user feedback before I raised an issue with IBM Support. Thanks!

Are you connecting via a tunnelling protocol, like Citrix?

Not normal!

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 busy deal with it. I have wishful thinking I'll get a reply "YES! That happened to us and here's what we did *POOF* problem gone". Otherwise, I may not spend too much time on it as we're also working on a migration to 11.5 and new hardware later this year.

Abby... something.

What is the RAM allocation on the client machine? Are DataStage Prod and Dev server located in same Data center?
