Setting the base directory

The dsadmin command can be used for setting the base directory for parallel jobs in a particular project.

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


dsadmin -basedirectory BaseDirectoryName ProjectName

ProjectName is the project whose parallel jobs the base directory is being set for.

BaseDirectoryName is the value to set the property to.

This command is only available for parallel jobs.
