DSXchange

Hi

Can anyone tell me how can I suppress the return staus code value which we get after running the dsjob command ?

Thanks

Redirect stdout and stderr to /dev/null

Instead of directly executing dsjob use a shell script that runs the dsjob command that parses the dsjob exit code and returns whatever exit codes you want.

dont include the -jobstatus option along with the -run. This way you will only get either a 1 or a 0. Then you can use either Ray or Ken's suggestion to obtain your goal.

Thanks for the replies.

I am using shell script and I am not running the command.
I can't redirect my stdout to /dev/null as I need the output of the command. I need to execute the following command.

dsjob -report DS_PROJECT DS_JOB XML

If I redirect my stdout as following then everything will be ruoted to /dev/null which I don't want...

dsjob -report DS_PROJECT DS_JOB XML > /dev/null

I need the output in STDOUT but I also want to supress the return status code.

Please throw some idea...

Thanks

What the heck do you mean by 'suppress the return status code'? You can return whatever you want from the script but can't 'suppress' it - it needs to return something. If you don't want to send back anything from dsjob - don't.

what I meant from suppressing staus code is....If I execute the command
[b]dsjob -report Prokect_Name Job_Name XML[/b] from a shell script it gives me the job statistics and also gives me [b]Status code = 0[/b] as the last line. I don't want this status code.

Thanks

Thats the status code of the dsjob command itself. It will not show up in the xml file, if thats wht you are worried about.

Pipe the result through grep -v Status code =
