Hi,
we want to run a datastage job without giving a password from the sceduling
tool, maybe this is possible because of userrights in unix or something like
that. Does anyone have any experience with using dsjob in this kind of way?
Thanks,
Wim van Dommelen.

dsjob run without visible password
You have some options. If your scheduling tool can logon to your DataStage
server as the user that needs to run the jobs, you *may* be able to omit the
host/user/password parameters... I dont recall it working for me under
Tru64, but using HP/UX at my recent job it doesnt seem to be required.
Pretty simple to test. Or check the documentation for the "-file" option
for dsjob, this tells it to read the connection information from a text file
so the scheduler doesnt need to know it.
Simplify things and wrap "dsjob" in a script that hides most of the
complexity of calling dsjob instead of calling it directly.

One possibility is to use environment variables. For example:
dsjob -host $HOSTNAME -user $USER -password $PWD -run $PROJECT $JOBNAME
