I assume that the software CD itself contains the manuals. Most of front-end design concept is identical to both Windows and Unix.

If you have the client installed, then look into the Documentation main PDF, select the Server Job Developer's Guide and go to page 19-132 and that will document the command line interface.

In the Parallel Job Developer's Guide the page number is 57-130.

You can also run jobs from the Director client.
You can also schedule jobs from the Director client; the GUI is a front end to the operating system's at/cron scheduler.

For information about these, see the Director Guide (dsopsgde.pdf) in the documentation set. Scheduling jobs is on page 3-7; running a job is on page 3-4.

Chand
Simple command help is available when you type
$DSHOME/bin/dsjob
If you want more help for a particular command
$DSHOME/bin/dsjob -run

Also read the online docs that come with Datastage.
Thanks
