Hi all,

I have always wonder how does people know what are the syntax and detailed description of all the commands in the Job Control tab. Eg. DMGetParam, DSLogInfo, DSLogFatal. There has to be some reference somewhere. Even for all programming languages, there has been references online on the syntax and what it does. I tried looking at the Help in DataStage but no such thing.

Can someone please share this document? Thanks a lot!!

Job Control is actually DS Server functionality. You find a detailed description partly in online help and full description in the "Server Job Developer's Guide", chapter "BASIC Programming".

This guide is part of your standard DS docu automatically installed when you install DS clients.

All functions described there starting with DS.... are DS specific BASIC functions most usefull in job control coding.

Best regards
Klaus

They also exist in on-line help. Open the Index and type in DSG and you'll be right where you need to be.
