DSXchange

As noted, they are two distinct values. Please double-check your findings.

Corresponding routine? Do you perhaps mean job? If so, job log information can be retrieved using the "DSGet*" functions available or with the dsjob equivalents at the command line.

OK, still never seen the like and still wondering what the difference is between the two environments / boxes. O/S? NLS setting? DataStage version? Anything peculiar about "this particular box"?

And just for grins, are you exporting / importing .dsx files or .xml files?

Well... the fact that both environment variables have been setup in the Administrator for the project with "default values" should mean they are set to those values in every job's environment in that project unless overridden. Have you checked what's in the second log entry for the job, th...

Still, never seen it either. Can you give a specific example? And 'mapping' in this case means 'job' I assume, yes? Also curious what's different between the two 'environments'.

I've worked with some people whom I would have *loved* to be able to force some kind of an "auto arrange" property into all of the Picasso-like jobs they created.

I wasn't saying that it *was* being overridden, just that the possibility exists that it *could* be or may not even been set and it looks like someone is trying to check for that possibility, even if it is remote. For a Project variable, you can use $UNSET in the job (rather than $PROJDEF) to unset ...

Well, let us know if anything is still unclear or not working as expected. It can be hard to really understand what someone is having a problem with when you're not looking over their shoulder. :wink: ps. You don't need to quote everything you are replying to, there is a "Reply to Topic" b...

Sure, environment variables can be overridden or 'unset', so seems like someone felt it might be prudent to check. Perhaps it catches problems in new projects or first time environments?

You don't need to create a parameter in the Sequence job itself for this, however the Server job will of course need one. The Job Activity stage will show all of the parameters associated with the job to run and allow you pass values from the Sequence job to the Server job, be that parameters or val...

You'd need to request it from your support provider or company then. It would be illegal, a licensing agreement violation for anyone to send them to you.

There's a normal "Snap to grid" option that makes it easier to line things up in an orderly fashion but no "auto arrange" functionality unless that's new in 8.

That syntax looks fine and *should* work just fine. Can others execute this command? What O/S and patch level is your PC? ... I am able to execute the command without any problem I didn't mean anybody anybody, but rather anyone else who works with prasad111. And no, you shouldn't need to worry abou...

Assuming your job is in a runnable state - compiled and not already running - try adding the authentication parameters to the command line: -server, -user and -password.

You must have the client software installed on a PC, yes? If so, then you have every pdf in a "Docs" folder under wherever you installed it.
