Infosphere Datastage – How to Generate Datastage Technical Design Job Reports
Report Generation Steps
Step 1: Log in to DataStage from your client.
Step 2: navigate to the Job you wish to document and open/edit job.
Step 3: Go to 'File' > and Click on 'Generate Report'.
Step 4: When the report Details dialog box appears:
- Choose Style Sheet
- Set 'Automatically Purge After:'
- Edit Report Name and Description, if desired, and click 'OK'.
Step 5 To view the report in DataStage, Click on the hyperlink in the DataStage box shown below.
Step 6: The rendered Datastage job report will appear in the web browser.
Step 7: to save report for use outside of Infosphere, within the browser, navigate to 'File' > 'Save As'.
Step 4: navigate to the desired path and choose "Web Archive, single file (*.mht)" and Click Save. I have found the "*.mht" to be the best format for exporting datastage reports, but you may choose any format which meets your needs.
