DSXchange

Hello All

When i execute the Datastage job to export the Datastage project, it ran successfully, but the dsx file size is 42,018 KB.

I copied the same command from the Datastage director, executed in the command line. All good, but this time the dsx file size is 244,335 KB.

I would like to know why the dsx is differ?

About the code:
This datastage export job was developed by me, we as using Datastage 8.5 may be 4 - 5 years back, if i am right.

Now we are using Datastag 8.7.

Methinks that your job does not export all artefacts, such as binaries and dependent objects.

Thanks Ray, but is there any difference if the same command has been executed using command line vs command activity stage?

Methinks he is saying it is not 'the same command'.

Are you using /EXEC option? Check out http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecen ... mmand.html

Means the command behaves differently ?
Or
Totally the different command ?

As i said before, i copied the command from the Datastage director. That means , to me it is a same command.

Even i tried the Export options from the Designer, none of them are not matching the dsx file size!!

I don't know what is happening?

Thank you battaliou for sharing this link.
This is the command.

Meaning, perhaps it behaves differently. As Ray noted, sounds like one includes executables / binaries (etc) and one does not. Which is also why the /EXEC question came up.
