So I need to prepare document.

Please help me out

There is no such version as 8.5.1, so you don't need to create any document. Good news!!!

Everything about version 8.5 (including Fix Pack 1, which takes it to version 8.5.0.1) is in the Information Center for IBM InfoSphere Information Server version 8 release 5. Create a document with a single line - the URL to the Information Center (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocente ... /index.jsp). Anything more is a waste of your time and effort.

Search the IBM web site for a Redbook about DataStage Standard Practices.

I think Eric is referring to this Redbook, but it was written when the 8.0.1 release was the latest and greatest. Perhaps there's another.

Regardless, being asked to create a document on something one knows nothing about seems a little ridiculous. Never mind the fact that there's already a huge amount of information already published by IBM for DataStage and for the 8.x release, I really don't see the need to create more. Point them here.
