DSXchange

Hi, Is there a way we can integrate a versioning system with datastage?
We are currently using datastage 8.5. Basically we need to integrate a version control system that has checkin/check out capabilities.

Please share your thoughts if you have done similar integration. Thanks

Yes. The short answer is that the integration is done through Information Server Manager. Once you have configured it to talk to your SCCS (and maybe downloaded an Eclipse plug-in for it), new menu items appear. At a recent site where I worked we integrated successfully with SubVersion.

I'm also looking to integrate with subversion also for source control and I have some questions:

1. What are the pain points for getting manager to work with subversion?
2. Also were there any show stoppers when packaging and deploying into another project via subversion?

I'm using DS8.5 in UNIX with Windows XP client environment. Thanks
