Could not schedule jobs
Posted: Wed May 16, 2001 1:56 pm
Hi,
I have a problem in scheduling jobs in DataStage. The DataStage
server version 3.5 runs on HP-UX machine.
I have created a user id by the name of dstage in the HP-UX. I
developed all my DataStage jobs using the dstage id in a particular
project. I managed to compile and execute the jobs. Unfortunately, when
I tried to schedule a job in the DataStage Director, it did not run as
scheduled.
Before I schedule the job in the DataStage Director, I have added the
dstage user id in the cron.allow and at.allow file. In order to
ensure that the dstage user can schedule a cronjob, I have created a
simple Unix script and scheduled the script execution in the Unix
crontab. The Unix script managed to execute as scheduled.
The funny thing was that the job execution worked when I tried to
schedule the job using root id in the DataStage Director.
I have checked on the Unix file permissions, and it seems the job
permissions are fine and should be able to access by dstage user.
Anyway, the dstage user can run the job from the Director.
Could anyone figure out my problem? I would really appreciate your
advice here.
Regards,
Melvin
