How to invoke programs in a remote server

Hi,

I'm wondering what it's the best solution for DataStage to call a remote program in another server.

For example DS is installed in the server A and we have the program dtsrun in the server B. If a use a sequencer in the machine A and the I use the Commnad Stage, what is the best way of calling the program dtsrun in the server B??



Any idea would be very appreciated.

Thanks
Julio

Julio,

if you have MKS toolkit or something similar intalled, the rsh program might be an easy way to do it, or if the other machine is a windows-based one then (depending on your security setup and connections) you might be able to run the program directly using \\node\drive\program.exe syntax.

You can also use the AT command.

Code: Select all

AT \\computername time "command"
