Need an efficient solution using Informatica Power center

Need an efficient solution using Informatica Power center-
I have a requirement-
1-I have a database which gets refreshed everyday.
2-I have a workflow which gets started only if the database gets refreshed.
So I have to design a workflow-- which will do the following things-
a- Checks if the database has been refreshed today or not(Not hard coding...as this workflow will run everyday to check that)
b- If the database has been refreshed then only start the workflow wf_XYZ
( SUGGESTION-may be after the session/task finds out that the db has been refreshed it can create a trigger file which will eventually start the next workflow) else can wait to get the db refreshed.

Just implement the change capture process to load new data.
That would take care of it, and you can relax.

  • Loading Hierarchies from Informatica Power Center

    Hi Guys,
    I am getting the error when I tried to load the Hierarchy from the Legacy system using Informatica Power Center. The structure of the data which is coming from the source system is in the same structure which we normally load it from the flat file.
    NODEID | INFOOBJECT | NODENAME | LINK | PARENTID | LANGU | TXTSH | TXTMD | TXTLG
    I was able to load the data from the flat file source system without any errors, but if I use 3rd party source system I am getting the follwoing error.
    Node ID 00000080 has not been included in the hierarchy
    Message no. RH207
    Diagnosis
    The node with the ID 00000020 and the node name ZMC is not specified as
    child, next, or parent in any node in the hierarchy. It is also not a root node (parent ID is not equal to 0). Therefore, the node is not used in the hierarchy.
    Procedure
    Delete this node or insert the node into the hierarchy.
    Anybody loaded the hierarchy from 3rd party systems into BW. Could some one tell us where we are missing something
    Appreciate any kind of help.
    Thanks
    John

    Hi BB,
    Thanks for your reply. The problem is, system has to create the TLEVEL automatically if the hierarchy data is coming from the Informatica. If I download the same data and load it through the flat file, its working fine because for the flat file source systems TLEVEL is automatically creating by the system. We are planning to implement a custom solution.
    Thanks once again.
    Regards
    John

  • Informatica Power center ?

    Hi,
    I've seen few posts that talk of Informatica Trial version available with Oracle download.
    I want to know if it's currently available ? What version I need to download to get Informatica Power center ?
    Thanks
    Mark

    I downloaded the file from the given URL:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/bi/performance-management/111110/hyperion_data_integration_111110.html
    --But this is to install SP5 patch which requires Informatica to be installed on your machine with default directories.
    I found another URL which gives Informatica PowerCenter8.1.1
    And used the URL you mentioned for Oracle license codes. But it has license key for Informatica Data Quality (Not for Powercenter) and do not work for Power Center 8.1.1 installations.
    Can anyone help me finding the right key ?
    Thanks!

    I have checked all of the Mappings, Mapplets and Workflows as well as generating parameters for attempting the load, but it still errors. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Many thanks for any help in advance.

    Was the Workflow or the DAC task been modified. Because the Out-of box customer dimension task would look like:
    is Commands executed :
    pmcmd startworkflow -sv OBID_REP -d Domain_xxx.com -u Administrator -p **** -f SDE_ORAR1213_Adaptor -lpf /u01/oracle/Informatica/server/infa_shared/SrcFiles//ORA_R1213.DataWarehouse.SDE_ORAR1213_Adaptor.SDE_ORA_EmployeeDimension_Full.txt SDE_ORA_EmployeeDimension_Full
    If a session in the workflow is renamed then the DAC Command's need to be modified to reflect the new name.
    Was Execution Plan built before Starting it.
    Let me know if this helped.
    Regards,

  • Can I install IDQ 9.6.1 with Power center 9.5.1 HF4

    Nope. The binaries are tightly bundled, you cannot install one without the other. The only alternative you may have is to install 9.6.1 in parallel to 9.5.1; under Unix/Linux that's easier to do than under Windows, but even under Windows this should be possible (because the Windows services installed by both versions have differing names). Regards,Nico

    Hello, Currently I have installed informatica power center 9.5.1 HF4. I need to install IDQ 9.6.1. I did get the install for the IDQ9.6.1 but it came with the complete install with the power center 9.6.1 HF1.  Is there a way to just install IDQ 9.6.1 and not the complete power center using the install file given.  Thank you for your help in advance.

  • Solution using File Text (.txt extension) as entry and JDBC as out

    We need develop a solution using File Text (.txt extension) with separator, as entry(outbound) and JDBC SqlServer as out (inbound).
    We have checked  the documentation in the url: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm and had no success.
    We defined the data type structure of file text likely the data content and structured in XI like this:
             Message Mapping 1                      Message Mapping 2
    outbound (txt) -> inbound (txt)   ->  outbound (txt) -> inbound JDBC,
    in Message Monitoring, showed just one message with status successfull and the target wasn´t reached ( the data was not writed in SqlServer).
    We didn´t understand why the Message Monitoring didn´t show us the problem with the solution developed.
    Regards,
    Midervilson e Mônica Andrade.

    The interface does not look correct to me.
    You dont need to create a text file out to send the data to a DB.
    File -> Sender Agreement -> File Sender Adapter -> Content Conversion -> Integration Server -> Receiver Determination -> Interface Determination (Interface Map) -> Receiver Agreemnt -> JDBC Receiver Adapter.
    You dont need to output the file for JDBC.
    Install JDBC Driver for your SQLServer using following guide and use JDBC Adapter.

  • Help! I'm in UK and need to recharge but when I plug in (using a power converter) the square white batter pack is buzzing - what does it mean????

    Help! I'm in UK and need to recharge but when I plug in (using a power converter) the square white unit is buzzing - what does it mean? I am using a power adaptor that works for other items - shaver, phone etc. and they don't buzz - it's coming from the square white unit before it's connected to the computer so I don't want to then connect my mac incase it means there's something wrong. Getting desperate as I need to recharge!! Thanks for any help!

    Hi
    If you're using a converter that changes the voltage from the UK ~230V to say 120V, rather than just a converter to different outlet/plug/socket sizes - then that's likely the problem.
    All the Apple power units I've seen are rated from 100V to  240V & do not require any sort of voltage converter, just something to let you plug it into a UK outlet (or an Apple cable/connector set). Many cheap voltage converters can cause buzzing as you've described.
    Many supermarkets & hardware/general stores will sell the right 'adaptor' for a couple of £UK - I'd find one rather than continue with the buzzing.

  • I am traveling to Italy. Do I need an adaptor to use the 220 volt power?

    I am traveling to Italy. Do I need an adaptor to use the 220 volt power?

    All you need is a plug adapter to have your power block fit Italy's outlets. You can get these at any major store, look in the luggage area.
    You do not need a voltage converter, the iPad's power block can handle world wide power.

Maybe you are looking for
