DataStage Documentation Tool

Post by datastagedummy »

Is there anyway to do documentation of the Existing DataStage jobs I have seen the Manager's -> Reporting Assistant what I am more interested in is something that can give me a flow of logic like a flowchart.

Thanks

What you would need to do is a "screen shot" in Designer of each DataStage Job. The Documentation Tool will update it's repository tables of Job information but not the logic.

Something like that is under development and should be coming to you soon (7.1, maybe - according to AscentialWorld). There will be a printout of the full listing of job's details (metadata) along with the visual diagram of the job itself in HTML (or XML?) format.
