Compiling and running DB2 connector jobs
You compile DB2® connector jobs into executable scripts that you can schedule and run.
Procedure
- In the InfoSphere DataStage and QualityStage Designer client, open the job that you want to compile.
- Click the Compile button.
- If the Compilation Status area shows errors, edit the job to resolve the errors. After resolving the errors, click the Re-compile button.
- When the job compiles successfully, click the Run button,
and specify the job run options:
- Enter the job parameters as required.
- Click the Validate button to verify that the job will run successfully without actually extracting, converting, or writing data.
- Click the Run button to extract, convert, or write data.
- To view the results of validating or running a job:
- In the Designer client, select Tools > Run Director to open the Director client.
- In the Status column, verify that the job was validated or completed successfully.
- If the job or validation fails, select View > Log to identify any runtime problems.
- If the job has runtime problems, fix the problems, recompile, validate (optional), and run the job until it completes successfully.
