Purpose

Imports the contents of ISX files underneath a defined location into a DataStage project.  Incremental imports can be performed by including the -project-cache switch parameter.

See Repeatable DataStage Project Deployments for more details on how the -project-cache parameter is used to implement incremental imports. For more information on using the -project-cache parameter see our detailed explanation.

Info

Note that the isx import commands requires access to a correctly-functioning istool command and so is only executable on a Windows-based DataStage Client Tier.

Incrementally import project binaries

only

This example incrementally imports project binaries, ignoring Job design information. Any Jobs in the project which do not exist in the source directory are deleted from the project.  C:/shared/myproject/export is a directory containing ISX files (with binaries) to be imported and C:/shared/myproject/cache contains state files related to incremental operations performed against myproject:
