Hi,
Craig is right in case your cell provider has this capability,
if not you need some 3rd party software/hardware that you can invoke from DS jobs.
Good Luck ,

Sending SMS from DataStage
My current client would like to know how you implement this. Please?chulett wrote:Pardon my ignorance, but is it really any different from sending an email? Quite a number of the messages we send out via 'email' are targeted to pagers and cell phones...

If you have an e-mail-to-SMS gateway server running, you can do this (with mutt on Unix, for example):
Where <cellphone no> is the destination cellphone/mobile number such and <ip address> is the e-mail-to-SMS gateway server's IP address.
Code: Select all
Message = "Job " : JobName : " is not in a runnable state!"
Code = "echo " : Message : " | mutt <cellphone no>@<ip address>"
Call DSExecute("UNIX", Code, Output, SystemReturnCode)

In my previous post I didn't explain what happens from there. The gateway server receives the e-mail, and sends the message via a connected GSM hardware link such as a GPRS modem to a network operator's SMSC (Short Message Service Centre) and voila! the mobile device receives the SMS/MMS, whatever you want to make it.
Of course there are tons of guys out there that can give you this capability via a buy/ASP business model.

this is an interesting thread...thanks for the info. I do, however, need to ask when will it stop? What's next? Is it possible to make wireless alarm clocks that can receive a code via SMS that would set the alarm clock off and wake us up in the middle of the night so we can go back into work?

Re: Sending SMS from DataStage
Really? Morney has posted quite a bit of the gory detail, but it really just boils down to sending a short email to a text message enabled pager or cell phone.ray.wurlod wrote:My current client would like to know how you implement this. Please?
For example, here I would simply send an email to my 10 digit phone number at my service provider, usually specifying a specific sub-domain. Something like: 3038675309@mobile.att.net for example. (um... not a real number - I hope!)
