I currently invoke a Datastage job from a unix korn shell by :

dsjob -server $SERVERNAME -user $DS_UID -password $DS_PWD1 -run

My problem is that the user and password are displayed as cleartext when you issue a ps (process status) from the Unix cmd line.

Does anybody know how to mask the user and password or have any suggestions on alternate means of invoking datastage so as to hide the user and password?

Thanks,
Mike

why don't you schedule the job from ds scheduler instead ?
