In DS designer, go to the job properties. In the dialog box, on the General tab, there is an 'Allow multiple Instances' check box. Check the box.

The next time you run from designer or directory, you will be prompted to enter an instance variable.

If you are running from a script, append a '.instancename' to the end of your job name. This will run the job with your instance name and you will see the instance suffix in director.

A warning, you will not be able to see the performance stats in the designer window, you will need to monitor the job to see row counts.

HTH,

In the properties of your job. Check the box allow multiple instance. When you run the job you will need to provide an invocation id, this differentiates each instantiation of the job.
