I need to take the back up from command line interface excluding the job executable and at the export time if a job/object is locked then automatically it will skip that job without asking for user intervention.
Currently I am running a scheduled script of dsxport command from my windows XP m/c which is taking the export of the whole project including the executable and if a job is locked then asking for user to skip that job.
The backup script available on Kim Duke's website will automatically skip locked jobs and log the ones skipped. I believe you are out of luck on the 'no executables' part.

It runs Dwn_ExecTCL.exe which is a VB program I wrote. It will run any TCL command from the client. So it is programmed in my script to run UNLOCK ALL in the UV account. It writes to a log file. It has a debug mode which writes the output to a GUI screen like DataStage Administor.
