how to export /import jobs from DS using command lines

Post by karthikgk0705 »

Hi All,
How do we export or import job(s) using command line interface.
Other than dscmdexport and dsexport , do we have any other option?
We dont have privilege to run these two commands.

Basically we need something like this.
Without using Datastage , (any of the client component) ,
Just by using UNIX can we do an export /import?

Please guide me.

Thanks.

dsjob as server command has -import option but not export.
BTW: why dont you have access to these commands?

From unix cmd, you can only import. And really why dont you have access, me curious ???
These .exe files are at the client end and if you have access to datastage, you have access to these files.

Perhaps, first you need to install the client software. :wink:
