First you need to know how the files are encrypted. Knowing that will give you the ability to know how to decrypt them and how to manage that in DataStage or at least under its control.

A ".gz" suffix suggests compression rather than encryption. Further it suggests gzip (usually a UNIX compression tool) for which the reverse is gunzip. Later versions of WinZip should be able to decompress this file.

It's possible that you are asking the wrong question. A compressed file may or may not be encrypted, while an encrypted file may or may not be compressed.

If the gz files you are getting do not require a password, they are compressed but not encrypted. You do not need anything more than the correct command to uncompress them for further use. In this case, WinZip should be able to handle extracting the compressed files.

Also note that if you used the FTP stage to bring over a compressed file to the ETL server, you may have destroyed it in the process. The stage is metadata driven and meant to process on a row-by-row basis which isn't possible with a compressed archive.

Use an Execute Command stage in a Sequence job rather than a subroutine.
