Understanding IBM WebSphere DataStage Setup and Configuration

This topic provides an overview of DataStage setup and configuration.

Setting Up DataStage for EPM

In order for IBM WebSphere DataStage to work properly with EPM, you must perform the following setup and configuration steps:

  • Create projects: Projects are used to import your *.dsx file metadata, which include ETL jobs.

  • Setup and configure environmental parameters: Every ETL job uses environmental parameters and you must configure the default parameters.

  • Import *.dsx files into projects: You must specify a project to hold your DataStage metadata, including ETL jobs.
