Summation scenario based question - How you find sum of salary for a specific employee (Explain stages and flow of job)?
Import Meta data - Database Connector - Filter Stage - Aggregator stage (Sum) - To list Result into a file Ex. Dataset
Explain Remove duplicates stage ? Can you do sort in this stage?
Removes the Duplicate values based on the First retained or second retain
Remove duplicates does have only internal sort, As a Recommendation It is better if we send Remove duplicate stage sorted data.
6. SQL Questions - Joins - Types, Difference between Join and Union
Join Types
Full Outer
Left Outer
Right Outer
Inner Join
Union vs Full outer: Union is similar to the Funnel stage in DS. Union need to be done on tables which has similar meta data where as Full outer need a matching Column between 2 or more tables
7. Unix Questions - How you run the Job, How you list all jobs in project
dsjob -run projectname jobname
dsjob -ljobs projectname

Can be created from DS Administrator, from User defined variables. Which can be used across all the projects in Datastage
