APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When multiple multi-instance jobs are kicked off at the same time, they sometimes overwrite the binary distribution on MPP system. Need fix for this.
Local fix
Set APT_COPY_TRANSFORM_OPERATOR to false and manually copy the binaries to the processing nodes.
Problem summary
When multiple multi-instance jobs are kicked off at the same time, they sometimes overwrite the binary distribution on MPP system
Problem conclusion
RESOLUTION: Added a new feature which will allow PXEngine to push newly compiled transform libraries out to remote compute nodes at compile-time instead of at runtime. This new feature is controlled through the use of a new environment variable APT_DIST_TRANSFORM_OPERATOR. When present in the environment, pushing to the remote nodes will be enabled at compile-time. This environment variable should contain a whitespace separated list of all server names in the cluster which will be merged with the list of fastnames contained in the configuration file used when the job is compiled. If no configuration file is specified in the job, the default configuration file is used. Setting the environment variable this way ensures that the compiled transform libraries are distributed to all nodes regardless of the configuration file used at compile time. Note: If you use compile-time distribution, you don't need to use runtime distribution. If this feature is going to be used on prodution servers, a compiler is required.
Temporary fix
Set APT_COPY_TRANSFORM_OPERATOR to false and manually copy the binaries to the processing nodes.
