Hello all. Is it possible to automate the export of an entire project via a batch job. I would like to run the export of an entire project via a schedule batch process.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes it is. Search DSXchange for dscmdexport command, possibly in combination with "BAT".

Check in Kim Dukes website, he is having a batch utility to export all the projects in a server.

Thank you both. This is very good info and should work for me.

Hi

In IIS VERSION 8.01 dscmdexport is not working.

Any other option is there for exporting datastage project.

I have no problem to use the dscmdexport (version 8.0.1); it works just fine. What's the error message?

Our version is 8.0.1
I'm trying to do it now, with dscmdexport command and dsexport command, and with both i have the same problem, when the export has finished i can't found some items in it, READ ONLY ITEMS has not been included.
I don't know what is the solution.

We have same version running on windows, and we are running auto export job everynight on all our environments. Its running without any issues. Please try to use following command...If you have any problem let me know...

Code: Select all

istool.exe export -dom %Domain% -u %User% -p %Password% -ar %ProjectDir%/%Project%.isx -ds ' -incdep -incexec "%Domain%/%Project%/*/*.*"' >> %ProjLogFileName%

That istool is only available in 8.1.1 with that 'comprehensive' patch installed.

Exactly, in our version we haven't this tool.

I wonder why I can not get the command functioning. I do have a lot of content in my project, but the export does nothing. It does not even create an empty target file, please see output below.

BTW, what is file extension .isx used here? Is the format supposed to be somehow different from regular .dsx?

Code: Select all

C:\dsbackup>C:\IBM\InformationServer_v8.1\Clients\istools\cli\istool.exe export
-dom etlmc-t1:9080 -u myusername -p mypassword -ar 001_VVDW_T.isx -ds '"ETLMC-T1.POSTI.FI/001_VVDW_T/*/*.*"'

I am answering my own question. There seems to be a bug as reported here: viewtopic.php?t=128327&highlight=istools

A known bug with an available patch, yes, as noted in that same thread.
