  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • User defines a job design using shared containers.
    The columns used before shared container can be ignored inside
    shared container. Therefore the flow of the data looks like
    interrupted.
    However this design is acceptable inside DataStage as long as
    the columns with the same names are used on the output of the
    Shared Container. Such situation lead to broken column lineage.
    The fix addresses such situation to check the input and output
    columns to have full column lineage.
