1) By using Stage variables in transformer, we can generate even numbers,
Declare a stage variable - SV1 and initialize to '0'.
In the derivation of that stage variable increment by 2.
i.e. SV1=SV1+2.

By using Surrogate key in transformer, use the below logic in derivation part.
Surrogate_Key -----> If mod(Surrogate_Key,2)= 0 then Surrogate_key Else Surrogate_Key + 10000001

2)Removing Duplicates
a. By using Remove Duplicates Stage.
b. By using SORT Stage,Sort on KEY Column and set 'Allow Duplicates' to 'FALSE'
c. By using Link Partitioning, use 'HASH partition' on KEY Columns and Select Perform Sort and UNIQUE options.
d. By using Transformer Stage Variables,
SV2----->If SV1=KEY_Column then 0 Elso 1
SV1----->KEY_Column
In the Constraint Part give as,
SV2=1

Can you explain link buffering?

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: ”, where is the value in the min_lvl field. My Question is how do you write the stage variable for reject rows.
