Hi all,

What does bin/uv mean in bin/uv -admin -stop
i donot think it is directory?

Thank you.

Kollurianu,

the bin/uv refers the executable program "uv" in the project home bin/ directory; this is the UniVerse (hence uv) or DataStage (new name) shell program.

p.s. You only need to post this query one time.

ArndW,
It also happened to me once when I thought my IE was stuck went Back and pressed again on the submit,
So I guess it was not intentional

I noticed the post was identical after leaving; another poster had posted the same question in both Px and Server forums, so I made that assumption that this was the same.

iam sorry about it , it was not intentional to post the topic twice.

Well any ways thank you all for the answers.
what is the path of the bin directory?

Hi,
performing:

Code: Select all

cd `cat /.dshome`

will get you to the installation directory
there you'll find the bin directory under which the uv exceutable is found.
bare in mind you'll probably need to load the environment by:

Code: Select all

. ./dsenv

after the cd command and befor running uv

IHTH,

[/list][/code]

what did you mean by following statement.

"bare in mind you'll probably need to load the environment by:
Code:
. ./dsenv

after the cd command and befor running uv ".

Thank you very much.

On UNIX systems it is necessary to be able to find certain libraries to run the bin/uv (or bin/dssh) command successfully.

In the $DSHOME directory there is a shell script called dsenv which, among other things, adjusts the library search path environment variable (LIBPATH, SHLIB_PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH) to include those libraries.

Without having executed the dsenv script, you will not be permitted to invoke the DataStage shell (also, though incorrectly these days, known as UniVerse) successfully.

Hi anu,
You would find all the documentation in DataStage Admin Guide in online manuals of DS Documentation.
