Hi Everybody,

I need to install OracleOCILoad plugin which is not already there in repository.

I donot know how could i proceed in unix.

do i have a package installer in unix as well ?

i already have OCI 7 load installed. but for that i need to run sqlldr command seperately.

suggestions please...

suresh

Hi suresh,

installation of DataStage is - compared to some other ETL-Tools - relativly easy.

But you need to know, what and how you do it. You can make mistakes, which are not easy to clean-up in a later process.

So let a professional do this job or get trained to be a professional.

Package Installer on UNIX is an executable called DSPACKINST. Find it on your system. It asks the same questions as its Windows counterpart.

Rerun the Server install. It will go into 'Maintenance Mode' and allow you to (amongst other things) do 'Plug-In Maintenance' - install any you missed the first time around.

To me it is more straight-forward than the 'package installer'.
