Hi,
It appears your string data is being right truncated.
Output buffer is not large enough to retain entire string.

Hi,
I am sure idea of executing through a UNIX script is more than just executing the dsjob command.
User might be controlling the execution, writing results to log files, recording error files, house cleaning, generating emails...

Hi,
You can also create CRON job in which you can define day and time of execution of the jobs
Call a shell script in the cron job
In the shell script use ---dsjob-- command to invoke the datastage job.
Of course you will need to define parameters for connecting to datastage.

Hi, You can use Stored Procedures for data manipulation(insert/update/delete) from and to tables. But you can achieve the similiar functionality in DataStage enviornment itself instead of using the PL/SQL stored procedure (In case of Oracle) and thus avoid PL/SQL statements.

Orchestrate was formerly produced by Torrent Systems
When Ascential took over in 2001, it became part of Parallel Extender Ascential Software's product suite.
You might something at Torrent Systems old site or ask Ascential Support?
