Connectors, which offer better functionality and performance, replace some stages,which have been deprecated and removed from the palette. However, you can still use the deprecated stages in jobs, and you can add them back to the palette canvas:

• DB2® UDB APDB2 UDB Enterprise
• DB2 UDB Load
• Dynamic RDBMS
• Oracle OCI Load
• Oracle Enterprise
• Teradata API
• Teradata Enterprise
• Teradata Load
• Teradata Multiload
• WebSphere® MQ

• Dynamic RDBMS

  Table 1. Stages and corresponding connectors

   

  Deprecated stages	Connectors
  DB2Z DB2 UDB API DB2 UDB Enterprise DB2 UDB Load	DB2 Connector
  Dynamic RDBMS	DB2 Connector Oracle Connector ODBC Connector
  ODBC Enterprise	ODBC Connector
  Oracle OCI Load Oracle Enterprise	Oracle Connector
  Teradata API Teradata Enterprise Teradata Load Teradata Multiload
  WebSphere MQ	WebSphere MQ Connector

   

  To use any of the deprecated stage types in new jobs, drag the stage type from the
  Repository to the canvas or to the palette. In the Repository tree, navigate to Stage

  which stage you want to use. Drag the stage type to the job canvas or to the
  palette.

When you create new jobs, consider using connectors instead of the deprecated stages. The following table describes which connector to use in place of which deprecated stages:
