Error message from a job

I am trying to use 'dsjob -report' option to capture statistcs like Start and End times. Isit possible to capture information like an 'Error; messaeg that Datastage throws in the log file. Is there any way to get it other than reading the Datastage log file? Thank you

Error messages in the log can only be retrieved from the log itself.

i am curious, whether the -type argument accepts multiple arguments like "FATAL" "WARNINGS".

For eXample, if we want to filter out both fatal and warnings, can we use like that?

I don't have DS to test now.
Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

I believe it's documented in the parellel job advanced developer guide

I found it in the Server guide and it says:

"EventType is the type of event logged and is one of:"

And then it lists all of the types. If you want multiple types, it seems to me you'd need to do so one at a time or use the "any" option and filter out the types you want.
