Deprecated stages

Connectors, which offer better functionality and performance, replace some stages, which were deprecated and removed from the palette.

However, you can still use the following deprecated stages in jobs and add them back to the palette:

Java™ Client
Java Transformer
Netezza® Enterprise
ODBC Enterprise
WebSphere® MQ

When you create new jobs, consider using connectors instead of the deprecated stages. The following table describes the connector to use in place of the deprecated stages:

Table 1. Stages and corresponding connectors
Deprecated stage	Connector stage
DB2 UDB Enterprise	DB2 Connector
DRS	DRS Connector
Java Client Java Transformer	Java Integration stage
Netezza Enterprise	Netezza Connector
ODBC Enterprise	ODBC Connector
Oracle 7 Load Oracle Enterprise	Oracle Connector
Teradata Enterprise Teradata Load Teradata Multiload	Teradata Connector
WebSphere MQ	WebSphere MQ Connector

To use any of the deprecated stage types in new jobs, drag the stage type from the repository tree to the canvas or to the palette. From the repository tree, expand Stage Types. Under Stage Types, expand Parallel or Server depending on the stage that you want to use. Drag the stage type to the job canvas or to the palette.
