Parallel jobs: Data can be being corrupted when moved between different data types with no warning issued (APAR JR46434)

Troubleshooting


Problem

In Transformer, Lookup or Slowly Changing Dimension stages of a parallel job, input data might be assigned to an output data field that cannot contain it. At run time, data that would overflow the output field is truncated or is modified to fit, without a warning being logged by the Transform operator.
