I use dscmdexport and copy my DSParams to the backup dir.

I've successfully recreated projects using these backups.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
You can backup Datastage v8.1 project using following command:-

istool.exe export -dom %Domain% -u %User% -p %Password% -ar %ProjectDir%/%Project%.isx -ds ' -incdep -incexec "%Domain%/%Project%/*/*.*"'

This command will backup whole project and can be restored very easily.

I am working on DB2 backup, will update once ready with the command.
