.isx format in Datastage export
Hi
I'm trying to export certain jobs from datastage using istool command.I'd like to know if .isx must be used in the file extension while using istool command?
Even it is not so can anyone share light on how to import from a .isx format to the datastage

The 8.x release added the format mentioned in the first post. Some good meaty information from Andy here on the new tool:

@chulett Thank you.
Just want to add a few things as the topic you have pointed is resolved. someone pointed out earlier that if the password contains '$' a backslash needs to be infront of it.
I don't think it is needed.I'm using a password that contains a '$' and without the '/' it is working fine for me.
and I guess if I am using istool utility to export assets I must use the istool utility to import those.

use your favorite PC compression program to unpack the .isx file - you will be surprised at the result.

I think I've used WinZip to uncompress the file, and just tested with my local compression tool at work, WinRAR. The single element files in the .isx file are in XML format and I haven't tried to import them but if you decide to give it a go please post your results to this thread so that others might benefit. My point was merely that the .isx file is actually an archive and it contains its own control structure information.
