Chapter 5. Deploying Alcatel-Lucent 5620 SAM LogToFile

2.3.0.0 DataStage jobs

You can design InfoSphere DataStage Administrator jobs by using the IBM

InfoSphere DataStage and QualityStage Designer client.

To deploy DataStage LogToFile, the following clients are used:

Administrator Client

You can create and configure the UDM project.

Designer Client

You can import, configure, and compile the UDM project.

Director Client

You can run and monitor a job.

The Designer client uses a repository where you can store the objects that you are

creating as part of the design process. These objects can be reused by other job

designers.

Note: You must not modify the job design.

Jobs and their associated objects are organized in projects. DataStage

administrators create projects by using the Administrator client. When you start

the Designer client, you specify the project that you work, and everything that you

do is stored in that project.

When your job designs are finished, they are run in the Director client. No data is

moved or transformed until you actually run the job. When you start the Director

client, you specify the project that contains the jobs to run.

Alcatel-Lucent 5620 SAM LogToFile 2.3.0.0 Technology Pack job

design

The features of Alcatel-Lucent 5620 SAM LogToFile 2.3.0.0 Technology Pack job

design are as follows:

LogTofile interface to SAM server

LogToFile solution relieves loads from SAM server thus allowing SAM

server to support higher performance load.

Class record filter option

Data from SAM server are not filtered. Filtering the class records reduces

loads from DataStage and UBA processing.

Multiple UBA Partition

This solution supports multiple sets of Accounting and Performance UBAs

to support UBA and Data Channel scalability.

Period window handling

Class Data from LogToFile might not arrive within the period interval. To

ensure data completeness, job waits for late data files and merge the data

into its correct period interval.
