Hello everybody,
I started to use DataStage about one month ago and after reading a lot of documentations, I wonder what are the possibilities in re-use jobs, instead of re-develop the same jobs many times (when minor changes occurs, with same stages), particularly with the transformation job.
Thanks for your help.

Welcome aboard.
There are many opportunities for creating re-usable components, such as Data Connections, Parameter Sets and Routines. As well it is possible to create re-usable jobs using techniques such as schema files and runtime column propagation.
You might like to research these in the DataStage manuals.

In addition, you should research Parallel Shared Containers and Multi-Instance Jobs. Also research the option to create re-usable templates with the "New Template from Job" option which is accessed from the File...New dialog box under the Assistants folder in DS Designer.
There is a great Redbook that documents all of these options:
