DataStage Version 5.2r1 client for DataStage version 7.5

Post by harshkohli »

Is it possible to connect to DataStage version 7.5 on Unix using DataStage verion 5.2r1 client? This is required as currently we are using DataStage 5.2r1 (Both server and Client) but wants to access other server which has version 7.5.

Thanks.

Absolutely not, even versions of 7.5 are incompatible with each other. I suggest you look at the client switcher utility on the install cd.

Install the 7.5 client in a different location on the PC. Use MCM (Multi Client Manager - the newer name for Client Switcher) to switch between clients. You can only have one active at a time.
