dsjob question

Hi All,

I have a project called 'dev', wherein I have a job 'seq2test'.

I have written a batch file as follows:

Code: Select all

e:\ascential\datastage\engine\bin\dsjob -logsum dev seq2test
This batch file displays the log summary of the job. how do write this displayed information to a flat-file. Any little help would be of great magnitude.

Thanks much,
Naveen.

Hi NaveenD,

Try redirecting the output of the command to a flat file

Code: Select all

e:\ascential\datastage\engine\bin\dsjob -logsum dev seq2test > log.txt
Hope that helps.

Hi NaveenD,

One more tip along the same lines. If you want to append to an existing file and not overwrite it, use >>

Code: Select all

e:\ascential\datastage\engine\bin\dsjob -logsum dev seq2test >> log.txt

Hi NaveenD,

The same holds good for UNIX. Actually I picked these tips from working on UNIX :wink:

Glad that I could be of help.
