(1) choose projects
(2) choose command
(3) use DS.TOOLS to find the jobnumber of the logfile
(4) write on the commandline "SELECT * FROM RTLOG_<num>"

You don't. You view it from Director. That's the main reason for having the Director client.

Which implies you need to know the job number for the job in question:

Code: Select all

SELECT JOBNO FROM DS_JOBS WHERE NAME = 'JobName';
Assuming that 'datastage error log' = job log, that is.
