Tracking Mainframe Lineage? / Use Visualization Tools?

Hi,

Two questions:

1. Can we track lineage with Mainframe Application in Information Governance Catalog using DataStage? If yes, how?
2. Can we connect to the IIS Server to Visualization tool like Tableau or MicroStrategy? if yes how?

[Note: title changed to be more descriptive - Andy]

Thanks, Ernie. We have involved support now.

Meanwhile, we pointed to the PROD source from non-prod region and triggered the job. It ran fine without any issues. This makes us think that there is something missing in the PROD IIS server.Your thoughts too, please.

Thank you all.
The issue was finally fixed by increasing the number of bytes in target database and changing data type to unicode from varchar in jobs. Thanks again!

Never mind.
It was an issue with the user ID used. When tried with admin user, export and import works - but still only for candidate rules. Thank you.

Thanks for the responses.
The user ID has full permissions. So it could not be an issue.

Meanwhile, we tried to a wait command in between and the file is getting transferred now. Thanks again!
