It indicates the type of database as it says. It could be any database type. One place where it can be used is in the DRS stage.

Someone at your site has created an environment variable $DBTYPE that this job will recognize. The $PROJDEF is a token to DataStage to tell it to get it from the environment.

Check the environment variables and you will be able to analyze it by yourself.

Hi Gurus,

Thanks very much Gurus.
