DataDeploy success/failure check

point_taken

Hello:

What's the easiest way to check from a workflow if a DataDeploy was successful or not?

Thank you.

If you are using iwdd.ipl , make sure you pass need-result=yes in your command line and the return code is
0: success
1 : failure

Ok,

That's straight forward, but is it my understanding that if you have 5 out of 10 records deployed successfully it's still returns "0:success". How do I find out about the other 5 records that did not deploy.

Thanks

Are you passing need-result=yes on command line?
iwdd.ipl cfg=**** deployment=yyy need-result=yes

If you have commit-batch-size set in your config file DD will reportt as success even if you have couple of failed deployments.

Ok (again):

No, I have used the commit-batch-size attribute.

Here is the documentation:
Example: If you are deploying 100 data content records and the commit-batch-size is 10, DataDeploy will commit the deployment after the successful deployment of every 10 data content records.

So if I understand this, after 10 records it will give me a success.

But if I set the size to 1000 and only have actually 500 records to deploy and only 499 deploy successfully deploy it should pass me back a failure, correct???

And if that is correct, How do I find the one record that did not deploy?

Sorry that this one is so long.

Thank you

Ok...
There is a bug in DD (bug# 43033) where DD will return a success return code if you have commit-batch-size set and one of the batches fails to deploy. (please contact support for more information on this bug)
Secondly you are looking for a way to find what files failed in the batch, currently the only way is to scan the log file. iwdd.ipl does not have the ability to display the deployment stats. Please contact support and request for enhancement of iwdd.ipl.

I have tired this and don't this this works...
Here is the syntax I used for my DD:

my $result = `$ddhome\bin\iwdd.ipl cfg=**** deployment=yyy need-result=yes ...`;

but it does no return anything.

Any thoughts?

Golden,

executing the command with `` backticks will give you stdout by default. Try executing using system($command);
This will return the result code.

Good Luck,

Hi, Thanks for your advise.

I've got return code as 256. Does this mean anything? what if it fails? I thought it should reurn for 0 or 1.

Thanks

GoldenState

Hi:

I have tested the failure scenario, it also returns 256....

Any ideas?

Thanks

There is an upcoming patch to be released soon which resolves these issues.

The return code from system is padded - and you need to shift it by 8 in order to get the correct value:

    my $status = system($cmd);
    $status >>= 8;
    print "Status: $status\n";

Alternatively:

    my $output = qx($cmd); # qx(...) is same as `...`
    my $status = $?;
    print "[$status]: $output\n";

If the output from the command goes to STDERR, modify the above to be:

    my $output = qx($cmd 2>&1);
    ...

Hope that helps
