When assigning the Derivation GetEnvironment(%envvar%)

it doesn't like GetEnvironment($PPID) or GetEnvironment($$)

Is there a list of envvar that will work?

Ok well it was worth a try. The environment variables are defined in the
Datastage Administrator.
Do this, in the before stage subroutine put,

Code: Select all

export myPID=$$

And to get the PID, specify the following in the stage variable

Code: Select all

GetEnvironment($myPID)

Hope that will work.
