Sudhir,

Start with the obvious. Check your login user name and passed word are correct and that the caps lock is not on. After that check the that the name of the host system is correct on the login box. Failing this, is the server machine switch on and running with out any problems.

Regards

Adele McClue

One of the many problems with dsjob is that its exit status is a single byte. So you dont get to see the whole error code. So 69 could be 69, 325 (256 + 69), 581 (512 + 69), and so on. You just dont know.

In the manual (Server Job Developers Guide) it states explicitly that dsjob is intended ONLY [my emphasis] as an example of how to use the DataStage C API.

Avoid dsjob wherever possible, and prefer DataStage job control routines.
