When you attempt to start one of the Datastage clients, the following message is displayed:
Failed to authenticate the
current user against the selected
Domain: Server [servername] not
found.
Checks & Solution :
You might be specifying an incorrect name for the
computer that is hosting the services tier.
You can check whether the application server is running
by attempting to connect to the application server using an Internet browser.
To connect to the
application server using an Internet browser:
1. Start your
Internet browser.
2. Type the application server address in
the form: http//isserver:portnumber,
where isserver is the name of the
computer where the services tier is installed or its tcp/ip address, and
portnumber is the port for connecting to the services tier (by default, 9080).
3. If the application server has started,
the login screen is displayed; otherwise an error message is displayed.
You can test whether you specified the correct name for
the isserver by attempting to ping the computer that is hosting the services
tier.
You can try to fix the problem by specifying a fully
qualified path name for the computer that is hosting the application server. For
example, instead of isserver:9080, you might have to type
isserver.mycompany.com:9080.
If the application server is
not running, attempt to start the service.
To start the application server where the services tier
is installed on a Microsoft Windows computer, click Start > All Programs > IBM WebSphere
> Application Server v6 > Profiles > default > Start the server
To start the application server where the services tier
is installed on a UNIX or Linux computer, you must have root authority. To
start the application server, do the following steps:

window, change to the WASInstDir/ASBServer/bin/ directory. WASInstDir is the installation
directory for the application server. The default installation directory is
/opt/IBM/InformationServer/.
Run the following command:
./MetadataServer.sh start
