If you have executed the datastage job from your id, you should be able to log on to unix with the same login id and kill the phantom.

Try to see if you can clean up resources from Datastage Director for that job.

Sorry I am unable to use cleanup resources.

I tried releasing locks but not working

Find somebody who does have the requisite authorization, and have them clear the status file for this job.

Go back to designer and recompile the job...should work

Thanks.

If the job is really still running, compilation will be prevented with a "job may be being monitored" message.

Specifically, 'cannot get exclusive access to executable' from what I recall. And then it will pony up the 'job may be being monitored' bit.

Shoot the monitor.

Aaaarrrgghh!!!

How do they identify which of the potentially many processes this command lists is the right one to kill? And ought they not to check for child processes first? Otherwise they might be creating zombies and rightfully incurring the wrath of their UNIX system administrator.

This is singularly bad advice. The need actually to kill a DataStage process should be extremely rare indeed, and kill -9 should never be used to do so. Use a gentler signal, which affords some grace time to the process.

Come on, folks... use your brains

If you do not have the permission to do something, then contact someone who does, preferably the person(s) who are responsible for the systems and/or applications related to DataStage. They are trained (hopefully) in the proper methods to stop a DataStage process.
