DSXchange

Is there any possiblities so that I can embade datastage Basic functions like DSAttachJob,DSGetProjectInfo etc into a Unix script OR can I call this functions from Universe shell ??

I know ther are other ways of doing this from datastage CLI but I want to explore the combination of Unix shell and Basic functions.

Yes, you can do this in a script via the "Universe shell", search here for dssh or uvsh for examples where people have done similar things.

Thanks Craig,
but search did not really help.There are only basic routines which call the function but none of the post tells how to run it from uvsh.

Any example will be a great pathfinder !!

This one might help:

Certainly the post u mentioned is very informative but still it is all about Universe call in a unix script whereas I want is to run following Basic functions in a Unix script and store the output in a file -

hDsJob = DSAttachJob(JobName, DSJ.ERRFATAL)
Start_TS = DSGetJobInfo (hDsJob, DSJ.JOBSTARTTIMESTAMP)
End_TS = DSGetJobInfo (hDsJob,DSJ.JOBLASTTIMESTAMP)
Elapsed_Sec = DSGetJobInfo (hDsJob,DSJ.JOBELAPSED)
Job_Status = DSGetJobInfo (hDsJob,DSJ.JOBINTERIMSTATUS)
User_Status = DSGetJobInfo (hDsJob,DSJ.USERSTATUS)

Is this possible ??

No.

But you can use dsjob -jobinfo project jobname in your script and parse out the information you require.

As noted, no - you could use those from a routine and call that after job. For a script you need to stick with either dsjob options or things you can query from the repository.

Ok,so it is clear now that I have only dsjob which can be used in shell scripts.
Thanks to everyone !!
