Setting up DataStage Default Directory on Windows Server

[svishaal]

Hi,

Can anyone help me to setup the default project directory.

Eq. - Whenever I specify ./test111.txt in Sequenctial File Stage file output parameter, it creates the test111.txt file in DataStage project folder which I am current working in.

Now, I want instead of DataStage Project Folder, file should be generated in my own folder, which I can specify by putting "./" in file output parameter.


Can anyone help me this thing, that where I should change the setting so that it will generate the files in my own folder instead of DS project folder.


Thanks in Advance....

The CWD (current working directory) of any shell command in DataStage will always be that of the DataStage project directory, so if you specify a relative path it will always start in that location. You should specify an absolute path if you want to use your own folder.

Welcome aboard. :D

The "." means "current directory". If you're executing a DataStage server job, that means the project directory. There's no way around that. You can't use ".".

Use a job parameter instead, for example #FileDir#/myfile.txt
