If you have dsadm access then either try releasing the job using dssh or thru DS Administrator.
Steps using dssh:-
1) Go to the DSHOME/bin/ directory and get the Userno from the 'list_readu' command.
2) type dssh and use the command LOGTO <ProjectName>
3) Type UNLOCK <Userno>
Steps using DS Administrator
1) Go into Command Line in DS administrator
2) Type DS.TOOLS
3) Choose option 4 i.e Administer Locks
4) Then Choose option 7 to release the locks help by a process
5) Give the Process ID of your job
Regards,
dsusr

"Release" has a very specific meaning in DataStage; it means "release (a read-only version-stamped copy of the job) for production". I suspect this is not what you mean.
If you mean deleting a job, then there is no easy way to do it from a UNIX command prompt. There are many interdependencies in the Repository database; you should only delete jobs using Designer or Manager client. And the job must not be in use in any way (open in a client or running).
