Shell script to access DataStage Director ETL joblogs



We have various data warehouses hosted on AIX/Linux/Unix operating systems. DataStage Director is one of the ETL monitoring & scheduling tool used in numerous data warehouses. In case of ETL job failures we need to login to DataStage Director and check the log for error messages. The ETL job logs can tend to span into several pages with various types of informative messages. Usually we need to locate the error message under ‘Fatal’ message type. Doing this task by searching the DataStage log manually can be very time consuming and tiring.




This shell script facilitates the user to access the error messages from the ease of the  Linux screen. The script also has facility to email the filtered log messages to the user’s mail box.


Ø  Accept jobname and other parameters while script execution.
Ø  Establish proper environment settings for local DataStage use
Ø  Locate event ids for fatal errors in the ETL joblog.
Ø  Extract detail log for fatal errors
Ø  Mail the filtered job log with exact fatal error message to the user.
