DataStage DSCC command using an authfile produces an invalid host error.

Troubleshooting


Problem

Information Server DataStage, the following message is produced when the DSCC command is used in conjunction with an authorization file (authfile): "The authentication file does not contain valid 'host' details" The DSCC documentation states that we must use /h or /hostname to specify a valid host. Using /h or /hostname in an authfile causes the error.
