HOW WILL YOU IMPLEMENT SURROGATE KEY IN SCD BY USING
SURR_KEY GENERATOR,THE VALUE OF S_KEY SHOULD NOT REPEAT
EVEN IF THE JOB IS COMPILED REPEATEDELY?

Answer Posted / prasad

this type of problem is clear in datastage8.0.1 version by
using the new surrogate key generator stage.
But whenever we use below 8th version we can will face the
problem in the case of surrogate key.to overcome this
problem use the help of the routines.
we have to pass the maximumvalue of the surrogate key
through the routine.when ever we run the job second time the
routine will pass the max value and it will generate the
sequence from that number only
