hello.,

i am wokring on parallel extender 7.1.
i have to work on unix to do the job
scheduling. but i am not too good in unix
shell scripting as i was used to do only
in datastage.
1) can anyone please help me with a sample
shell script for job scheduling and running
in datastage
2) it would be very much helpful if you can give
me a sample shell script for finding the error
log after we schedule and run the job.

thanking you.

For scheduling in unix, you can use crontab facility. Just say at the prompt, man crontab and go thro it. While setting up the crontab entries, you can give the shell script which invokes the datastage job.

Best of luck!
