Background
S2PX supports the in-situ conversion of Server jobs from a supported standalone (i.e. non-Cloud Pak) version of DataStage (v11.3.x, 11.5.x and v11.7.x).
S2PX can only convert Server jobs which already successfully compile and run in a supported version of DataStage.
Technical Prerequisites
Requirement | Description | Link |
|---|---|---|
Open (non-IBM) Java v1.8 | S2PX is implemented as a MettleCI Command Line plugin and so is subject to the prerequisites of that tool. MettleCI CLI components cannot use the IBM-specific version of Java typically shipped with DataStage due to technical limitations with that version. See the MettleCI CLI documentation for more details. | |
IBM DataStage Fix Pack v11.7 : 11.7.1.4 SP1 v11.5: TBC by IBM | S2PX requires the installation of a DataStage Fix pack in your existing DataStage environment to provide a number of additional capabilities requires for it to operate.
