You mean while running a job from command line? Please check out the dsjob command ... search the forum ... this has been covered many times.

Search on keywords like 'dsjob -param'

See, this is a sample command line invocation of a job through script :
Code: Select all
dsjob -run -wait -param RCPT_ID=${RCPT_ID} -param STATUS=${STATUS} -jobstatus myProjectName myJobName
which passes parameters RCPT_ID,STATUS to the job myJobName. Similarly you can pass in any number of parameters. In this example the value being passed is caught from the unix environment variables in place of which you could have read the parameter values from a parameter file and used those.
