You can use the Incremental DataStage Deployment task to deploy an entire directory of ISX files to an existing DataStage Project. Functionally, this is the equivalent of deleting everything from the existing project, importing all ISX files, provisioning all QualityStage rules and compiling all Jobs, Sequence, Server Routines and BuildOps. However, the task will minimize the deployment time by performing as few operations based on the content of the existing project.
Using the Incremental Deployment Task user interface
Navigate to the Tasks configuration tab for the job (this will be the default job if creating a new plan).
Click the name of an existing Incremental DataStage Deployment task or click Add Task and then search 'DataStage' to easily locate the Incremental DataStage Deployment task type, in order to create a new task.
Complete the following settings:
