My Computer, right-click, Properties, 'System' section. If you have 'Service Pack 2' installed, it will be listed there.

From the command line, I don't believe you can get to that value directly. I believe you'll need to parse that from the 'Starting' log message of the most recent job log entries. :?

Memory <> disk space. Memory = RAM. If you have Write Cache enabled, turn it off or try bumping the value for that in the Administrator.

Welcome aboard! :D

I'm afraid my first reaction is... what? I've never heard of a DataStage 'accelerator' and wouldn't have a clue who 'they' are. Perhaps it would be best if you explained where you heard about this and what it may be or was used for or something to set the context.
