We are starting with a new data migration project. In the meanwhile, I have been asked to create DSParam file.
I am not sure what exactly is the difference between DSParam and DSEnv file. Tried searching but didn't get anything worthwhile. Can anyone please help?

Well, you could look at them. Incidentally, there is no file called DSParam (it's called DSParams).
There is one dsenv file. It resides in the DSEngine directory and, primarily, sets up environment variables globally for all DataStage processes.
There is one DSParams file for each project. It resides in the project directory and stores settings - including environment variables - created in the DataStage and QualityStage Administrator client.
If an environment variable exists in both locations, the value in DSParams takes precedence.
