S2PX is implemented as a pair of plugins to the MettleCI Command Line Interface which provide a new s2px namespace containing two new commands:

s2px analysis, which takes an ISX export file of Server jobs and generates an XLSX spreadsheet which will aid your estimation of the effort required to transition from Server to Parallel, and
s2px convert, which takes a DSX export file of Server jobs and generates the equivalent Parallel assets for re-import into your DataStage project.
