Calling QS jobs from DS WITHOUT using the QS plug-in

[AlexD]

Hi,

For various reasons, I am not able to install the QS-for-DS plugin that allows you to run QualityStage jobs from within Datastage - parallel.

As someone fairly new to all this I am hoping there is an alternative way to achieve this.

Any help much appreciated.

thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,

Look at the QualityStage Designer User Guide section 8-8 ("Running Jobs from the Command Line")

You can use the command:

Code: Select all

scriptname -ipe.env proc_env_file -ipe.env proj_env_file

The command is described in the manual. The available mode scripts are: File (.stp), DataStream (.scr), or PX (.par) depending upon how you want to execute your job.

You can wrap this as a custom Wrapped Stage. There are plenty of posts here on how to create wrapped stages.

HTH,
J.
