Maybe you need to include more details of what you want.

For file, you can use ftp.

Relational databases generally allow their own networking mechanism to be 'visible' across servers, generally using 'TCP/IP'.

Is the other server visible? That is, is the directory where the file to be transferred mounted (or mountable) on the DataStage server? If so, you can access it directly. If not use FTP - either a script to transfer the file or an FTP stage to transfer its data.

Two alternatives.

Use FTP stage for getting the file from the remote machine onto the drive which is visible to your DataStage.

Ask somebody to periodically send the required file to a place that is accessible to DataStage.
