  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  DATASTAGE 8.0.1: PX JOB LOGS APPEAR CONFUSED WHEN RUNNING
  MULTIPLE NETEZZA LOADS IN PARALLEL
  ****************************************************************
  RECOMMENDATION:
  NOTE: Pls apply the PX Engine patch before applying this netezza
  patch.
  
  PXEngine patch: JR32539.
  
  Instead of applying the patch JR32456 for this CRM it is
  preferred to apply the patch JR32825 for the CRM 17008.379,000
  
  which has the fix for both the CRMs and is the cumulative patch.
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• The code is fixed.
  Now uniquely and different 'nzoutput' files are created for each
  run of netezza ee stage on each datastage node, so that the PX
  Job log will log out the right table name in the ds job log.
  Patch has been delivered to the customer.
