istool in Redhat linux 6.8

Post by vinothkumar »

Hi,
Recently we did DataStage and OS upgrade. DataStage upgraded from 8.7 to 11.5 and OS upgraded from Unix to Redhat Linux. Earlier we used istool to import and export jobs. After upgrade, not able to see "istool" in ../InformationServer/Clients/istools/cli". Instead there is one file called "istool.sh". Are they both same ?
