You can do it, by calling your DataStage job from command prompt. In doing so, it can be called via unix shell script. You can have parameter file imported to a shell script, & the same can be passed to a dsjob. This one approach, I know. Below is detail of Shell script : SCRIPT STARTS #!/bin/sh...

I have tried following command :

unlock all myuserid #

But I am getting an error messgae as,
'Insufficient privileges to perform lock maintenance.'

I am not an admin, still can I unlock?

This is my job is locked against my own id, though its not open in my DataStage application window. Do any one knows, how to get rid of this lock, from the job.

I want to start a DataStage job from AIX unix prompt. How can I achieve that?

Thanks Craig & ArnW

SELECT CATEGORY FROM DS_JOBS WHERE NAME = 'JobName';

It will give you the category in which your job resides.

ArnW, Thanks for the links.

But it didnt solve my problem. I am having many jobs in my project, which are classified under different categories.

I need to know, given a command & a jobname it will tell me which category that job resides.

What command to be given in DS Admin console to find a job?

Also, can anyone suggest me a place where I will find a comprehensive list of commands to be given at Command interface with DS Administrator?
