How to view a hash file from Unix console?

I have created a hash file in a server job. The hash file has the name Vinodh1. Suppose I have created it in the directory /apps/dsadm/Vinod. When I got to the above directory, I see another directory with the name Vinodh1. It contains 2 files: OVER.30 and DATA.30. I want to view this file from the console. Is it possible using uv and/or uvsh ?

No, unless /apps/dsadm/Vinod is the pathname of a project directory, and even then you can not without SETFILE.

Because the hashed file was not created in an account (project), there is no entry for it in the vocabulary of DataStage (a special hashed file called VOC).

You can create an entry in the vocabulary using a command called SETFILE, executed within the dssh environment. Search the Forum for full details on using this command.
