DSXchange

Understood and thanks. But you have not given any idea as I asked. Anything further, please? djoni The major number reflects the version of DataStage. The minor number is the number of times the component has been released/promoted. The point number is yours to do with as you wish. If the point ...

Can anybody who has used Version Control give me an idea with respect to the release numbering, what changes should be considered as minor and what major?
Thanks, djoni

I got the answer from IBM support: enclosed this kind of Oracle user id with single quotes. They said it would be fixed in the next release. djoni I have a $ char in my Oracle user id/schema, DS$DJONI, and have not been able to connect to my Oracle database. I have no problem using any of other user...

I recall reading something about this in the manual. Don't have access to DataStage this week, but I'd hazard the guess that it's the Parallel Job Developer's Guide , and the chapter on the Oracle Enterprise stage. The same problem can arise with DB2. Both "#" and "$" can be tro...

I have a $ char in my Oracle user id/schema, DS$DJONI, and have not been able to connect to my Oracle database. I have no problem using any of other user id/schema's that do not have $ char.

How can I resolve (I have to use the DS$DJONI) ?

No, there isnt any inbuilt parameter file for dsjob. Instead you need to create of your own logic and need to prepare code(Shell script) to read the parameter file and pass the values to the dsjob commands. I would really appreciate it if you could email me a sample script darmawd@thedominion.ca Ma...

You can maintain a parameter file which hold all the necessary dynamic parameter. And it can be passed to -param in dsjobs. You can refresh the parameter file for every run as you wish. This is great news! But, what will be the content of the parameter file? parameter name and value pairs? Format? ...

hope it helps

Thanks "The Brute". But, this mean we hardcode the paramater values in the dsjob, doesn't it?

How do we pass parameter values to a job at run time?
(not manually keying the values, no defaults)

Even better. But, I guess you meant Parallel Job ADVANCED Developer's Guide.

Does the Interations Methodology CDROM come with the DataStage EE software CDROM's?

Yes it does stores in version control project. When you initialise a job using version control a copy of the job gets stored inside your Version Control Project. While promoting you only select objects which are already stored in your version control project. Regards Yes. I tested. I works as you d...

Which manuals cover dsjob?

The Server Programming guide has the info about dsjob

Thanks,

Yes! I found it. Thank you. It's in the Server Job Developer's Guide, Chapter 19 starting page 139, Section 'Command Line Interface'.

Job logs are not stored as UNIX files; they are part of UniVerse hashed tables. Access to the log information is through the visual information presented in the Director, using a routine such as the DSGetLogInfo() call in BASIC or through the UNIX command "dsjob", which has several option...

when I initialize a job, does it get stored in its version control project?
How about promote?
