Row Generator stage: Output tab (DataStage®)
The Output tab allows you to specify details about data output from the Row Generator stage.
The Columns section specifies the column definitions of outgoing data. Click Edit at the bottom of the Columns section to specify detailed column information. The Advanced section allows you to change the default buffering settings for the output link.
Properties
You can specify the following properties on the Output tab:
| Category/Property | Values | Default | Mandatory? | Repeats? | Dependent of |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Options/Number of records | number | 10 | Y | N | N/A |

Number of records
The number of records you want your generated data set to contain.
The default number is 10.
Schema file
By default the stage will take the meta data defined on the output link to base the mock data set on. But you can specify the column definitions in a schema file, if required. You can browse for the schema file or specify a job parameter.
