I connect to several different environments (services tier: dev, test, staging, prod) with several different usernames and several different projects.

I have figured out that running {dsdesign,director}.exe host.com/projectname will fill the 'Attach to Project' dialog project field.

But I cannot figure out how to fill the 'Host name of the services tier' and 'User name' fields from the command line. And I cannot find any documentation in the IBM documentation. dsdesign.exe /? just fills the project field with /?.

Am I missing something, or is this just not possible?

Try using /D and /H switches. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSZJPZ_11.7.0/com.ibm.swg.im.iis.ds.design.doc/topics/r_ddesref_Requesting_a_Job_Report_from_the_Command_Line.html

  • That link goes to an error page ('The requested page does not exist or might have moved.') Using `/D blah` first fills the project field with `D:/` and everything else is ignored. Same if I use `/H blah` first. – harleypig Mar 25 '21 at 22:59

    You could search in the Knowledge Center. I am finding the page. Syntax is: dsdesign.exe /AF=authfile | /D=domain /H=hostname [/U=username [/P=password]] project (job_name | job_sequence_name | /SC shared_container_name) /R [/RP=report_pathname] [/RT=stylesheet_pathname] [/RX] – Ray Wurlod Mar 26 '21 at 23:08

    Go to Knowledge Center https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSZJPZ_11.7.0/com.ibm.swg.im.iis.productization.iisinfsv.home.doc/topics/kc_homepage_IS.html Search for "generating a report using dsdesign command line DataStage" Open "Requesting a report from the command line" link. – Ray Wurlod Mar 26 '21 at 23:11
