DSXchange

Hi,
our's is a server sequence job and it is run by a shell script.The script has the restartability function that is, the script reads the last run status from the jobstaus in the source path and triggers the last failed job if the sequencer has aborted otherwise it will start from the beginning.Now we want to run the sequencer from the starting eventhough last run has failed,is there any command to clear the status of the job?

From the command line (script), no.

You could recompile the jobs, using dscc, but that's not the same as clearing the status even though it has that as one of its effects.

But are you permitted to recompile in production?!!! Not at any site I run.

You should, however, be able to reset the job from the command line to the same effect. Can't check the actual syntax from here at the moment.

CLEAR.FILE RT_STATUSxxxxxx

Not from a script (without being wrapped in an invocation of a DataStage shell).
