Setting global envioronment variables within Datastage Adm

[Marley777]

Hello, I'm new to the Datastage PX 7.0(UNIX), and I'm wondering if someone could give me some examples of ways you have utilized the envirionment variable within Datastage Adm. I realize global environment variables differ from project to project, and there are some common to all projects such as the APTDB2INSTANCE, SRC_DIR, TMP_DIR, ERR_DIR, and DB2INSTANCE. Are there any other global environment variables that one might want to set for each project? How have you utilized your envioronment variables?

Thanks

In case you haven't read the release notes for 7.0.1:

Environment variable support has been enhanced to provide dynamic setting of environment variable job parameters, via a project environment variable, at runtime. This prevents the need to re-compile the job to pickup a new environment variable value.

A welcome improvement in handling of job parameters.

I totally missed that one...

*searches through 7.0.1 on UNIX Readme docs*

Hmm?

*searches through 7.0.1 Windows CD readme docs*

Hmm?!

Where did you find this information?
