Setting an alias for a job

The dsjob command can be used to specify your own ID for an InfoSphere® DataStage® job.

Other commands can then use that alias to refer to the job.


dsjob -jobid [my_ID] project job

my_ID is the alias you want to set for the job. If you omit my_ID, the command will return the current alias for the specified job. An alias must be unique within the project, if the alias already exists an error message is displayed.

project is the name of the project containing job.

job is the name of the job. To identify a job invocation, use the format job.invocation_id.
