Well, you've basically seeing "usage" for the command because of a syntax error. And there's really no way for us to know the why of it. How are you launching the jobs? Did anything change when the issue started - patches installed (O/S or DataStage), maintenance, anything of that nature?

Hopefully you've also opened a case with your official support provider.
