Are you really going to "create a unix" just for that? Or just create a UNIX shell script? :lol: You need to run dsjob with neither -wait nor -jobstatus (which you could have determined by searching DSXchange); your script must then periodically check the status of each job until the statu...

"ade"is a generic identifier in DataStage. User shared memory segments have a key that begins with "adeb", hashed files have a magic number that begins with "adef", and so on. A different identifier is used when an -itag installation is performed.
