Hi & Welcome aboard
,
The report generated is an ascii file, you can use the system redirection mechanism to redirect it to a file of your choice.
After obtaining the data in a file you can use a DS job to load it to a DB of your choice, much like any other data you load to DB tables.
a sample ussage of the -report option with no redirection :
Code: Select all
C:\Ascential\DataStage\Engine\bin>dsjob -report DS324_Solutions Stam DETAIL
**************************************************
STATUS REPORT FOR JOB: Stam
Generated: 2007-04-26 16:54:54
Job start time=2007-04-26 15:43:11
Job end time=2007-04-26 15:43:11
Job elapsed time=00:00:00
Job status=1 (Finished OK)
Job has no stages.
Status code = 0
IHTH (I Hope This Helps),

Well, the dsjob -report command generates report for a particular job only and not for a folder. So in the script that you call dsjob -report you have to specifically mention the job names for which you want the report. You can save the report in a file and load into a database column (preferably a clob column).
Usually saving the whole report is a wastage, so if you can be specific about your requirements and the reason why you want to save the report, strategies could be identified for the same.

EtlStats will generate all jobs, all jobs in a sequence. Take that code and modify it to meet your needs.
can you explain step by step to implement the same

The job DSJobReportDbDriver is the one job to start with. It runs a job called DSJobReportDb which runs dsjob -report XML as a before job routine for whatever job you feed into it as a parameter. Take out the code to run the job DSJobReportDb and just execute a shell to run dsjob without the XML option. >> to whatever file you want. You are done.
Install EtlStats and you can report off the tables like ETL_ROW_HIST. Much easier in the long run. More professional too.
