Linux Shell session setup for DataStage Command Line

To setup Linux Shell for Datastage command line is very important if you are a DataStage Developer and want to work hassle free on DataStage Command Line.

Follow below steps to setup your profile ---

a) First, we will create .dshome file which is containing the path of DS Engine. If you know what it is, good, create a file in root dir with DS Engine path
otherwise execute below scripts to do it by itself

	#!/bin/sh
	#DataStage4You
	echo "creating DSHOME file...."
	if [ `ps -ef | grep -c dsrpcd` -eq 2 ] ; then
	ps -ef | grep dsrpcd | grep -v grep | awk '{print $NF}' | sed -n 's/bin\/dsrpcd//p' > /.dshome
	echo '.dshome file has been created under / (root dir)'
	else
	echo 'Please check whether datastage server is up or not, If not, please start'
	fi

	export VISUAL=vi
	export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vi

	stty erase ^?
	export HOST=`hostname`
	export PS1='$HOST:$PWD> '
	export PS2="$HOST:`pwd`>> "
	export PS3="$HOST:`pwd`== "
	unalias ls
	set -o vi
	echo setting up DataStage environment
	export DSHOME=`\cat /.dshome`
	# execute dsenv
	if [[ -x $DSHOME/dsenv ]]; then
	. $DSHOME/dsenv
	else
	echo "The DataStage dsenv file ($DSHOME/dsenv) not found or is not executable!"

	. /etc/kshrc
	fi
	# User specific aliases and functions
	export PS1='`hostname`:$PWD > '
	#DS ENV
	if [ -f /is/is/Server/DSEngine/dsenv ];then
	. /is/is/Server/DSEngine/dsenv
	fi
	#ORACLE_HOME=
	#ORACLE_SID=
	# User specific aliases and functions
	alias dsr="ps -ef | grep 'DSD.RUN' | grep -v 'grep'" #alias for listing down all current running ds jobs
	alias ll='ls -lrt' #alias for ls -lrt
	alias llt='ls -lrt|tail'
	alias rds='orchadmin rm' #alias for removing dataset use like - rds <datasetname>
	alias dds='orchadmin dump' #alias for view/dump dataset use like - dds <datasetname>
