Importing Datastage jobs into Talend Open Studio

_AnonymousUser — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 13:02:39 GMT

I am using the ETL Converer tool and I am to the point I see the jobs in Talend Open Studio in the Navigator Window, however I do not see them in the Repository Window. When I look at teh properties in the Navigator Window it shows they are archive files.
My question is how do I get the jobs to show up in the Repository Window?

have you tried right-clicking "Job Designs" in the repository view and selecting "import items" and then pointing at your archive files?

I tried this but, when I pointed it to the directory were the project is, it came back with a message that there were no archives to import. I am a Talend newbe so I might be doing this all wrong. What is the naming convention of the archive files? If I know what they are named I can search for them.
THANKS for the help!! I appreciate it.

Hi
It is impossible to import datastage jobs into Talend open studio, you have to redesign the job using TOS.

On SOURCEFORGE
ETL Converter is a migration tool that builds open source ETL projects from existing projects made with proprietary software. The first version converts DataStage projects into Talend Open Studio projects. Other sources/targets will be available later.

I am using the tool you referenced ETLConversion, and it works great. I get the Datastage jobs into Open Studio and I see them in the Navigator tab, but not in the Repository tab. What can I do to get the job to show up in the Repository tab?

I figured this out. The problem is that Open Studio changed in 4.1.2 and they added a date to each job when exported. The ETL Converter tool was published before the release of 4.1.2 and was never updated for the current release. The work around for this is to use Open Studio 3.2.2 as the tatget of the ETL Conversion tool. It will work as advertised then export the project out of 3.2.2 and import ithe project into 4.1.2.
There is a technical explination for the reason 4.1.2 will import the 3.2.2 project export, even though it was before the date was added, but I don't have the time nor the space to address it here Ask the Talend Development team they can do a better job explaining it anyway.
Thanks to all of you who looked at this and offered help.

Hi there,

You might want to check out Bladebridge's converter offering (bladebridge.com).

Also, there is a video under Talend's resources page:

https://www.talend.com/resources/bladebridge-migration-solution/

This solution has been used on numerous DS->Talend conversion projects at this point.

Cheers!

This is something I figured out. The issue is that in Open Studio 4.1.2, they added a date to each job when it was exported. The ETL Converter tool was released before 4.1.2's release and has never been updated for the current version.

There is a technical reason why 4.1.2 would import the 3.2.2 project export, despite the fact that it was created before the date was added, but I don't have the time or space to explain it here. In any case, ask the Talend Development team; they'll be able to explain it better.
