Hi User As If / Its Me,

dsjob is not a TCL/UV command. It need to be executed in command prompt. dsjob is a executable available in $DSHOME/bin.
If you want to stick to Administrator command, you can use SELECT NAME FROM DS_JOBS WHERE NAME NOT LIKE '\\%'

You are using the wrong tool. To start a DataStage job from a client too, use the Director client.

While it is possible to invoke dsjob from the Administrator client command window (using the DOS verb with /C switch), it is an entirely inappropriate mechanism.
