Owner of files when using Websphere Datastage

We are converting from datastage 7 to datastage 8.
When using DS7 we have a datastage user and when creating files in a datastage server job this user is also the owner of the files on unix.
When using DS8 the same files are created but now with owner dsadm.
Can this be changed or is the datastage engine always creating the files with owner dsadm?

This would be an IIS configuration setting. Using the web front end you can set up DataStage to authenticate and only use one userid for actual logins at the OS level. It would seem that it has been set up to be "dsadm" at your site.
