Hi,
I was given the task to find uot if it's possible to execute / run a job remotely by sending an SMS from your mobile phone to the server. Apparently somebody is doing it somewhere.... Does anyone know of this solution being implemented and how does it work?
Thanks

Executing a job by sending an SMS
Moderators: chulett, rschirm, roy
There's 2 ways to start a job: use Director client or use dsjob command line.
My guess is that they simply are using the dsjob command line interface to execute the commands to start a job. This isn't rocket science, some watchdog script waits for whatever mechanisms to tell it that it is time to start a job running.

There's nothing within DataStage itself, but you can have a continuously-running process checking email (send SMS through email gateway) and generating an appropriate dsjob command.
If you have version 7.5 you can also have the Director client on a PDA device, and start jobs that way.
