DataStage Administrator (only) is not much called for. In a well set-up system it would take about 0.1 of a full time equivalent.

Information Server Administrator is a rather more complex set of skills, and so will command higher salary if you're any good at it.

The former really ceased to exist at version 7.5. Get IIS Admin skills if you don't already have them, and you'll be a very marketable commodity.
