But you also lose information if you reset automatically afterwards, so I personally think it is a bad idea. My dsjob run script (amongst other things) validates that the job exists, checks to see if it needs to be reset and does so if it needs to and then runs the job.

That's what the command does, reset. Only. It is a separate dsjob command from running a job, so if you want to do both you have to call dsjob twice. And typically one would reset before running, not after, as you make it harder to know what happened if you reset before getting a chance to look at t...

Bummer.

Don't know how v8 changes the picture, or even if it does, but DS supports multiple servers installed on the same host using an 'itag' installation. Hopefully they've updated the docs - look for a (from memory) multiserv.pdf document in your Docs directory.
