we have installed the IBM datastage 8.5 on Aix server. but we are not able to connect to datastage clients. When I run the command (./bin/uv -admin -info) the status shows running. I rebooted the DSENGIN and VM. Any thoughts why I am getting below error ?
Error Mesage:
Failed to authenticate the current user against the selected Services Tier
Could not connect to server [Host Name] on port [9080].
I get that same error when trying to log into a client while Information Server 8.5 is down. If your server really is up then maybe there is a firewall blocking traffic between your client and your server.

It's more likely, given what's in the error message, that the root cause is not the DataStage services at all. Read the error message carefully. Cannot connect on port 9080 means that you can not connect to the services tier - so that in all probability your WebSphere Application Server (server1) is the culprit. Check its status with the serverStatus.sh command.

A few relevant questions. Was this a new install or an upgrade? Are you connecting with user isadmin? What is the URL you are attempting to connect with?

As you said that you can't even see the port 9080 is up running, that means most likely the default WebSphere Application Server process (server1) is not running either. So ask your system admin for help. Trying to us different IDs to login wouldn't solve your problem.
