Can anyone tell me how to run a server job from the command line on a unix box. I could not find it in the help or anywhere else!

I could find how to compile and generate report from command line, but not how to run it without using director.

Thanks.

Here's a shell script you can read to learn about the dsjob executable:

As Ken noted, the 'dsjob' executable is used to (amongst other things) run jobs from the command line. In addition to the script he linked you to, read the documentation that comes with the product - in particular the Command Line Interface chapter in the Server Job Developer's Guide manual.

Appreciate the responses. Somehow I could not find the topic "command line interface" earlier, now I can!

Thanks.
