Migrating the Repository when Domain Names and Encryption Keys are the Same

Migrating the Repository when Domain Names and Encryption Keys are the Same

When the domain names and encryption keys are the same, back up the repository in the old domain, copy it to the new domain, and restore it.
Before you migrate the repository, create the new Metadata Manager repository database. You must also export users and groups from the old domain and import them into the new domain. You can use the infacmd command line program to export and import users and groups. For more information about infacmd commands, see the
Informatica Command Reference
.
  1. In the old domain, use the mmRepoCmd backupRepository command to back up the repository contents to a binary file.
  2. In the new domain, create the Metadata Manager Service and associate it with the new repository database.
  3. Enable the Metadata Manager Service in the new domain.
    The PowerCenter Repository Service and PowerCenter Integration Service must be running to enable the Metadata Manager Service.
  4. Copy the repository back-up file from the back-up directory in the old domain to the back-up directory in the new domain.
    The back-up directory for repository back-up files is the following directory:
    <Informatica services installation directory>\services\MetadataManagerService\mm_files\<Metadata Manager Service name>\backup
  5. In the new domain, use the mmRepoCmd restoreRepository command to restore the repository contents from the binary file.
  6. In the new domain, recycle the Metadata Manager Service.
    The Metadata Manager Service drops and recreates the caches that store model and resource information.
  7. In the new domain, manually create the search index for all resources.
    On the
    Load
    tab, click
    Actions
    Configure Search Index
    and select all of the resources.
