Phantom Process is Orphened process.
Some times some processes will still running in the server even though you kill the actual process.

Some threads will be keep running without any source process they are called Phantom Process.

if you see the Directory called %PH% this folder caprures the log of phantom process.

I dont know what is the case you are getting this error but please check the active process in the datastage server and kill them if they are running since very long time

In the transformer stage the order of the output links should be such that the dependant links should come after independent links. otherwise job will abort with message phantom error

Kognati could you please elaborate your answer. What do you mean by dependent and independent links?

Just to elaborate on kogantis answer. Independent links are stream/input links and dependent links would be the reference links from lookup.

Kill the process id for the specific job.
