DataStage server is written based on a database which is very much like IBM UniVerse. They used to be the same system but have now been developed indendantly. The database is a Pick postrelational one and you can use your favorite web search tool to find thousands of pages discussing this.

:? But i can query the UV database even though i am using Datastage PX/EE.

:roll: So it is not good practise to query UV Database (almost daily)?..since i am using a UV query to find the jobnames which are using specific table..
Thanks in Advance!

Query is harmless but beware that, once you move to version 8.x, the repository will be DB2, Oracle or SQL Server.

I guess most likely it would be DB2; as it is also an IBM product. :)
