Sorry didn't make it blindingly clear
For enterprise require full Visualage compiler / runtime the works.
For Server only need Visualage runtimes

Previous response was correct for enterprise. For Server we've found during upgrade 7.0 to 7.51 Make sure you have runtime equivalent to those stated in Setup guide. We had to upgrade to ViaualAge v6 (Nov 2004). Had problems installing later edition, pulled software off IBMs web site. Also double ch...

Thanks for the information.

I'm creating a test script to see how to complete this.
Also thought of running -lognewest before and after job and picking up the range.

Thanks for that.

However, I need to put this into a UNIX batch script running overnight.

Could anyone suggest a way I can link dsjob - lognewest giving the newest log with dsjob - logsum so I can pull the latest log.

I'm NOT a shining star on UNIX scripting so am very grateful for any advice.

I'd be very grateful for advice Have created a UNIX script that runs our DataStage jobs. After the JOB has run check the log file for either Warning or Fatal messages. strConnect="$DSBin/dsjob -server 127.0.0.1 -user $DStageID -password $DStagePASS " $strConnect -logsum -type WARNING $DSPr...

I'd double check the version your using and contact Ascential for latest fixes. Originally used 7.0 which won my ' Rubber Spanner Award' There were a number of bugs which were fixed and released. Still not really impressed, but it is better. We also had issues with permissions from our DEV server to...

I have a group of files coming into a specific UNIX Subdirectory, they were all of the same format. I run a DataStage job in the parameters I have the before Stage set the ExecSH The script concats the files in the subdirectory to a single file. and then moves the data files to an Archive. It seems ...

We have an informal standard here in that we automatically set ABORT after 250 warnings on jobs. We'd like to make this a more formal standard (accepted there'll always be exceptions). Is there any way I can apply this setting to all our jobs? Anyone created a utility for such an event? Advice grate...

Very similar to Rays Code, do initial check for null string being received and stip trailing spaces: Input variable SourceString Ans = '' lenvar= len(trimb(SourceString)) if lenvar < 1 then Ans = ' ' For i = 1 to lenvar step 1 char1 = SourceString[i,1] nchar = seq(char1) if nchar <32 or nchar>127 th...

I'd check that the user account allows multiple sessions / connections?
- but would expect a better error message.

Check Out DS Administarator and complete a clean-up on the project.
Make sure know one has any jobs open in the project.

Go back into the project and see if they are still there.

1) When you sign onto the UNIX server you'll normally default to a user home account Eg. /home/dsadm 2) It worth copying a version of dsenv to this subdirectory and set priviledges (chmod 766) to run the set-up parameters. 3) Then type . ./dsenv to setup the DataStage environment settings within the...

On a related issue, we had difficulty running DS Manager to complete an export of project. We were informed of the dos command dscmdexport. Please note there can be issues if run whilst objects are locked by users. dscmdexport command The dscmdexport is as follows: dscmdexport /H=hostname /U=usernam...
