Creating a project

The dsadmin command can be used for creating projects.

You need to have InfoSphere® DataStage® administrator status in order to use this command:


dsadmin -createproject ProjectName
   [-location ProjectLocation]
   [-copyroles SourceProject]

ProjectName is the name of the project.

-location ProjectLocation is the location of the project in the form of a path name and with the project name included. In the following example, test is the project name.
dsadmin -createproject test [-location /u1/IS85/IBM/InformationServer/Projects/test]

If no location is specified, the project is created in the Projects directory in the server install directory.

-copyroles SourceProject is the name of the project from which the user roles for the new project are copied.
