Is it possible to have a unix shell script attaching to a DataStage project and querying the project properties using basic functions like, I guess it's name was DSGetProjektInfo? If yes, how would it look like?

Use the command line interface program --> dsjob

This program is in your DSEngine directory, as well as thoroughly documented in your online documentation. You should also search the archives, both Oliver and this forum for the discussion regarding this utility.

If you use the command with insufficient command line options, for example "dsjob" or "dsjob -run", it displays the required syntax.
