Hi All

Can we move a Datstage project from one box to another on UNIX.

1.Both the unix boxes are exactly the same
2.Both have the same ver of Datstage installed.
3.Both have the same directory structure for datatsage projects.

Instead of exporting and importing the jobs from one box to another,we were wondering if there was a way to just do a unix copy and start using the jobs on the new box.

Thanks

Of course you can copy them. But will they work? Probably not.

What will be missing are "system table" entries on the second machine.

The easiest way to get these in place is to do it properly; create the projects on the second machine using Administrator client. Then export from machine 1 and import to machine 2.
