Do you have access to the Ctrl-M server? Any idea how the logs are actually stored? Talk to your Ctrl-M peoples...

Hi,
Your schedualer rund DS jobs that means you can monitor the DS jobs or log their runs and get all the info you need.

Otherwise you'll need to get the info (not likely you'll get access to the log file, but you can try)

IHTH,

If you can describe the format of the Control-M log file in metadata terms, you can process it with DataStage. If it has a variable record format you still may be able to do so. You will also need to be able to specify its location to the DataStage job.
