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

What is a datastage job?
create a job that splits the data in the Jobs.txt file into
four output files. You will direct the data to the
different output files using constraints. • Job name:
JobLevels
• Source file: Jobs.txt
• Target file 1: LowLevelJobs.txt
− min_lvl between 0 and 25 inclusive.
− Same column types and headings as Jobs.txt.
− Include column names in the first line of the output file.
− Job description column should be preceded by the
string “Job
Title:” and embedded within square brackets. For example, if
the job description is “Designer”, the derived value
is: “Job
Title: [Designer]”.
• Target file 2: MidLevelJobs.txt
− min_lvl between 26 and 100 inclusive.
− Same format and derivations as Target file 1.
• Target file 3: HighLevelJobs.txt
− min_lvl between 101 and 500 inclusive.
− Same format and derivations as Target file 1.
• Rejects file: JobRejects.txt
− min_lvl is out of range, i.e., below 0 or above 500.
− This file has only two columns: job_id and reject_desc.
− reject_desc is a variable-length text field, maximum
length
100. It should contain a string of the form: “Level out of
range:
