DSXchange

Hi all,

May i, in Designer, access the enviroment variables set in Unix Shell? For example, if i have set in UNIX shell a enviromnent variable LOG, how can i access it in Designer?

Thanks in advance,

P.S.: I dont want to pass the variable LOG as a parameter.

UniVerse (DataStage engine) has an ENV command. You could execute the command ENV DISPLAY LOG and capture its output, perhaps using DSExecute with the shell argument set to "UV", this in a before/after subroutine or in a job control routine.
