Aborting a Session in Informatica 8.6.1

Scenario:

I am trying to abort a session in the workflow monitor by using 'Abort' option.

But the status of the session is still being shown as 'Aborting' and remains same for the past 4 days.

Finally I had to request the UNIX team to kill the process.

Could anybody let me know the reason behind this as I couldn't find any info in the log file as well. 

Solution:

- If the session you want to stop is a part of batch, you must stop the batch
- If the batch is part of nested batch, stop the outermost batch
- When you issue the stop command, the server stops reading data. It continues processing and writing data and committing data to targets
- If the server cannot finish processing and committing data, you can issue the ABORT command. It is similar to stop command, except it has a 60 second timeout. If the server cannot finish processing and committing data within 60 seconds, You need to kill DTM process and terminates the session.

As you said to kill the process we need to contact UNIX Admin.

But last time I coordinated with oracle team updated OPB table info related workflow status.

SQL Transformation with examples

============================================================================================= SQL Transformation with examples   Use : SQL Transformation is a connected transformation used to process SQL queries in the midstream of a pipeline . We can insert, update, delete and retrieve rows from the database at run time using the SQL transformation. Use SQL transformation in script mode to run DDL (data definition language) statements like creating or dropping the tables. The following SQL statements can be used in the SQL transformation. Data Definition Statements (CREATE, ALTER, DROP, TRUNCATE, RENAME) DATA MANIPULATION statements (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE) DATA Retrieval Statement (SELECT) DATA Control Language Statements (GRANT, REVOKE) Transaction Control Statements (COMMIT, ROLLBACK) Scenario: Let’s say we want to create a temporary table in mapping while workflow is running for some intermediate calculation. We can use SQL transformat...

CMN_1650 A duplicate row was attempted to be inserted into a dynamic lookup cache Dynamic lookup error.

Scenario: I have 2 ports going through a dynamic lookup, and then to a router. In the router it is a simple case of inserting new target rows (NewRowLookup=1) or rejecting existing rows (NewRowLookup=0). However, when I run the session I'm getting the error: "CMN_1650 A duplicate row was attempted to be inserted into a dynamic lookup cache Dynamic lookup error. The dynamic lookup cache only supports unique condition keys." I thought that I was bringing through duplicate values so I put a distinct on the SQ. There is also a not null filter on both ports. However, whilst investigating the initial error that is logged for a specific pair of values from the source, there is only 1 set of them (no duplicates). The pair exists on the target so surely should just return from the dynamic lookup newrowlookup=0. Is this some kind of persistent data in the cache that is causing this to think that it is duplicate data? I haven't got the persistent cache or...

PL/SQL Interview Questions

1.     What is PL/SQL ? PL/SQL is Oracle's Procedural Language extension to SQL. PL/SQL's language syntax, structure and datatypes are similar to that of ADA. The language includes object oriented programming techniques such as encapsulation, function overloading, information hiding (all but inheritance), and so, brings state-of-the-art programming to the Oracle database server and a variety of Oracle tools.   PL SQL is a block structured programming language. It combines data manipulation & data processing power. It supports all SQL data types. Also has its own data types i,e BOOLEAN,BINARY INTEGER 2.    What is the basic structure of PL/SQL ? A PL /SQL block has three parts: a declarative part, an executable part, and an exception-handling part. First comes the declarative part, in which items can be declared. Once declared, items can be manipulated in the executable part. Ex...
