Logging into a DataStage server using the Manager requires the host name of
the server, the fully qualified name if necessary, or the servers IP address and
the operating system username and password.
The user account must be a member of the group(s) that has been assigned
Developer rights to the particular project.
Once a connection has been made to a DataStage server, the logon credentials
will be saved for future logins.
The DataStage Manager operates in two modes, Host View or Project View.
By default, the DataStage Manager opens in Project View for the first time,
showing the contents of the project that you have opened.
If you switch from Project View to Host View, then the server hosting DataStage
is shown at the top of the tree in the left pane, with all the DataStage projects
currently defined beneath it.
You can switch to the other projects in the tree as required. The next time you
open DataStage Manager, it will reopen in whichever mode you left it.

In order to arrange the contents of your project, you can use the DataStage
Manager to:

Moving Projects
DataStage allows you to import and export components and objects in the
repository in order to move jobs and/or projects between DataStage systems.
You can also use the export facility to generate XML documents that describe
objects in the repository.
The import and export capabilities are the most commonly used methods of
moving repository objects between projects or between systems.

From the Export menu, select the directory and file name to create using the
browse button or type in the name of the file manually into the Export to file line.
If you have selected a previously created export file, then you should select the
Append to existing file option; otherwise, the utility will ask if you want to replace
the existing file.
If the file to be created is a new file, then you should decide in which format you
want to create the export file (either DataStage export file or XML).

The Usage Analysis tool allows you to check where items in the DataStage
Repository are used.
Usage Analysis gives you a list of the items that use a particular source item. You
can in turn use the tool to examine items on the list, and see where they are
used.
For example, you might want to discover how changing a particular item would
affect your DataStage project as a whole.
The Usage Analysis tool allows you to select the item in the DataStage Manager
and view all the instances where it is used in the current project.
You can also get the Usage Analysis tool to warn you when you are about to
delete or change an item that is used elsewhere in the project.

Reporting Assistant
The Reporting Assistant is a flexible utility that allows you to generate reports at
various levels within a project.
For example, entire job, single stage, set of stages, and so on. Information
generated for reporting purposes is stored in a relational database on the
DataStage client.
A Microsoft Access database is supplied as the default database target for the
Document Tool, but schemas are also supplied for other databases.
This information can then be used to print a report, write a report to a file, or be
interrogated by a third-party tool.

DataStage learns about the shape and size of the system from the configuration
file.
It organizes the resources needed for a job according to what is defined in the
configuration file.
When the system changes, you need to make changes only in the configuration
file leaving the jobs untouched.
