I did one thing. I rescheduled it to another time. Crontab entry was reflecting the change. So I think there is no issue with the linkage between DS job and cron. What can be popping up from this? Is the issue in Datastage end?
Thanks..
Do you get any indication in the log that the job even tried to start? Or does it look like absolutely nothing happens when the time comes? For the latter, talk to an SysAdmin. Former, support.

I can see your last message partially. By the way, one difference i noticed in "Environment variable settings" log entry of both kind of runs.(Schedule run & Manual run)
The diffrence is in value of "Home" variable. Schedule one's points to user profile while the manual one points to admin profile.
Sysadmin of the UNIX box says that the scheduler worked fine though the job is not triggered from Datastage. I mean from DS end we couldn't see that the job starts automatically according to schedule. But cronjob log states that the cronjob have been working fine..Do I need to check dsr_sched.sh or something else...
