Alert when logging to a Datastage Administartor

Post by info_ds »

Hi all,

I am trying to develop a script or a Datastage Job which has to send a email whenever a User logs into a Datastage Administrator .

Can anyone give me a idea to proceed ?

Thanks in advance

Probably the easiest would be to start the dsrpcd with logging, and inspect the logs periodically.

I can not think of any mechanism that allows you to filter out connections from clients based on the particular client software that is being used - the dsrpcd mechanism is totally general purpose. You might be able to intercept the dscs service (dsapi_server executable), but determining whether or not the connection request comes from an Administrator client is not easy (indeed may not even be possible).

Let us know if you succeed.
