External Filter Stage

Post by ErichG »

I'm running a SFTP korn shell script using the External Filter Stage. I use echo messages to send output to the screen that is captured within a seperate korn shell log. What I would also like to do is force the same messages into the running DataStage External Filter job log as well......somehow.

As near as I can tell the best way to do this is using UNIX cat >> and directing each UNIX Korn shell message that I want concatenating onto the DataStage job log running. I have my doubts that will work without admin privileges. Has anyone done this in the past? I have not tried it yet but I am wondering, is this a good practice or will it cause issues down the road.

Is there a better way to do this? 8)
