issue with using $ENV after DS8 migration

Hi ETLers,

I have just migrated the scripts and jobs from version 7.5x to 8.1
& jobs get parameters through $ENV.

I have taken care of all other setting required to run the jobs in 8.1
But, only issue i am facing is assigning values to datastage via $ENV.

Is there any setting required in Admin or in OS/unix so that i can use $ENV.
Error i get is "Missing Parameter"

any information regarding $ENV usage and setting would be helpful

Note: $PROJDEF Is working fine. but $ENV not

You get this error when exactly? Doing what?

I get the error when executing jobs through unix script & in particular while assigning values to jobs parameters. we use $ENV to get the parameter values exported in the unix shell and pass to datastage

Good catch.
