Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  DataStage users using Job Reporting / Parallel or Server job
  types
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  A problem was discovered where job reporting listed incorrect
  input or output links in generated reports for a given stage.
  
  This only happened when there was a significant number of links
  (say nine or more) per stage, and whilst the original problem
  was discovered with a Transformer stage, any stage could
  potentially have the problem.
  ****************************************************************
  RECOMMENDATION:
  Install patch patch_JR37709_client_windows_8100-1
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• The default stylesheet (XSL) was incorrectly matching the wrong
  internal link identifiers - this has been corrected such that
  the entire string has to matched before being included in the
  input/output link sections of the report for a given stage.
  

Temporary fix
