DSXchange

Hi Fawlty,

Are you saying that in a protected project your expectation is that a Production Manager should be able to compile the job?

By the way, bouncing the server didn't change anything.


Oh and thanks for the welcome!

Hi Chulett,

We actually opened a ticket, case, whatever with IBM on this very question. Unfortunately we haven't received a concrete response yet. I figured while we were waiting, I would tap the knowledgeable audience here for the 'in the field' experience .

Hi Kumar_s, I'm not sure I understand your question. I'll try to answer based on what we want to accomplish in our environment. We use an external source code control system so typically developers develop in the DEV project and place their ready for QA dsx files into the source code tool. From ther...

We defined a user as a: Production Manager . Basically, what we wanted to take advantage of was providing read-only access to developers which the protected project allows, but provide a Production Manager the ability to do the things listed in the documentation. Were you able to find the documentat...

This is in the Administrator guide: (Program Files\Ascential\DataStage7.5.1\dsadmin.chm) Do a search on 'Protecting a Project' ... Here is the excerpt ...

Thanks, Ray. We are at 7.5.1.A

So, is the version we are running behaving as expected or is the documentation right and we have a bug in our version?

I believe we are using version 7.5.1. Is there a file or command I can type to get the exact version info?

What is the most up-to-date version of 7.5 we should be running?

By the way, unlike Ultramundane we do not use the version control mechanism inside datastage.

Thanks again,
Rick

Hi, From the Datastage documentation it states that the highest permission level should allow importing, compiling and running of jobs in a protected project. However, we aren't able to compile... just import and run. Is this expected behavior and the documentation is wrong or is this a bug? (it fee...

I found it on our Unix server. Thank you. Another quick question...The list as output from this command does not include the "container hierarchy" that the designer shows. Is it possible to output each job's hierarchy as part of the listing? For example: Job: somejob Contained in: \myjobs\...

Unfortunately, I don't have a dsjob.exe installed on my Windows client. Is that something that is part of a standard install for datastage v6?

Or...is that only available from the Unix server?

Hi,

I've seen a few backup type scripts which start with the list of objects in a text file. Is there a way to get that list of jobs/functions from the command line in datastage v6?
