Configuring your designs

After you have sketched out your job design, and defined the data and any special components that you need, you must configure the job.

You configure the job to specify all the properties for the individual stages you have sketched. You also specify the data that flows down the links that connect the stages.

Each job type supports many different types of stage, each with many properties. Details of these stages and their properties can be found in the following places:
  • Developing parallel DataStage and QualityStage jobs
  • Developing server jobs

There are also job properties that you can set. These control how the whole job behaves when it runs.
