4> A key is a field or set of fields that uniquely identifies a record in a file
or table.
6> A surrogate key is a field that is added to a record, either to replace the
natural key or in addition to it, and has no business meaning.
Surrogate keys are frequently added to records when populating a data
warehouse, to help isolate the records in the warehouse from changes
to the natural keys by outside processes.
.cfg file is for the remote connection and .dbc is for connecting the
database.
.cfg contains :
19> 3. Userid/pwd

22> What is lookup file?
Lookup is used to share the data through out the graph.
It is very small enough put in memeory or buffer
It d0esn’t have ports
It is with key parameter

When should I use in-memory Rollup or Join versus sorted input and a
Sort component?
What does the error message "straight flows may only connect ports
having equal depths" mean?
Ans: This error message means your work directory (AB_WORK_DIR) is full.
. What is layout?
58> What does the error message "too many open files"
mean, and how do I fix it?
Ans: This error message occurs most commonly when the value of the max-
core parameter of the SORT component is set too low. In these cases,
increasing the value of the max-core parameter solves the problem.
This error message is generated when an Ab Initio process has exceeded its
limit for some type of memory allocation.
Three things can prevent a process from being able to allocate memory:
The user data limit (ulimit -Sd and ulimit -Hd). These settings do not
apply to Windows systems.
Address space limit.
Every time you run a graph, communication takes place between various
parts of the Ab Initio software. Incorrect setup of this communication can
lead to this error.
In some cases, it might not be apparent that there is more than one machine
involved in the execution of the graph. This situation typically arises if some
of the components in the graph are configured to run on a remote machine.
If the communication between the machine with the Co>Operating System
specified in the Connections dialog and the remote machine is not set up
properly, you could see this error message.
You can also get this error if you are using an EME datastore or a database
on a remote machine.
SSH does not execute the .profile or environment files automatically when
running in a non-interactive session (that is, within Ab Initio). However, SSH
has the facility to execute its own environment file.
Telnet: 23 & **
The ** refer to the dynamically determined port the Application Hub sets up
for the file transfer
Yes, you can access different databases from within the same graph.
Each component that references a database needs its own database
configuration file
The definition of the default layout varies with the specific database
component used. For INPUT TABLE and OUTPUT TABLE, the default
layout depends on which database you are accessing. For the other
database components, the default layout is serial
M_env
To back up your EME datastore you must use either the air repository online-
backup start or air repository backup command. We recommend using air
repository online-backup start, if possible, because it does not require
you to shut down the datastore.
M_env -v
Yes
To delete all watcher datasets in the default directory (for all graphs),
use the GDE menu option Delete Watcher Datasets
You can use EME project and sandbox parameters to share parameters
between graphs in the same sandbox
How can I reference a value in one component that I created in
a different component?
Yes
Depths are not equal --- occurs when you are trying to join two
different depths of multi files
102. A graph has been checked out from the data store by user
A and userB.Now if the graph has been locked by user A. Is it
possible for user B to edit it? (TRUE/FALSE)
No
