Hi all,
Is there any disadvantage or things that we should be aware if DataStage is installed in a different directory than /home/dsadm?
Will it behave differently than /home/dsadm install?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Whale.

It can be installed anywhere except the root directory, and will behave exactly the same. /home/dsadm is the default only because it must exist if dsadm is doing the install.
Another exception: it must be installed in a "real" directory, not on a symbolic link.

There isn't any disadvantage. I usually install in the structure below:
Installation : /dstage/product/
Projects : /dstage/projects/
Repository : /dstage/repository/
Attention for the permissions of the directory.
