genReuseReportFromPC

genReuseReportFromPC

Generates a report that estimates how many PowerCenter mappings can be reused in the Model repository for a native or Hadoop environment. You can generate the report as a PDF or Excel file.
If you generate the report as an Excel file, click

 in the message bar to load all sheets.
Before you run the infacmd ipc genReuseReportFromPC command, verify that you complete the following tasks:
  • Configure the required environment variables for the pmrep command.
  • If you use a Linux environment, grant the read, write, and execute permissions on each release folder located in the following directory:
    <informatica server installation directory>/tools/pcutils
The infacmd ipc genReuseReportFromPC command uses the following syntax: 
genReuseReportFromPC
								
<-RepositoryName|-r> Pc_Repository_Name
        
<-HostName|-h> Pc_Domain_HostName
        
<-PortNumber|-o> Pc_Domain_PortNumber
        
[<-UserName|-n> Domain_UserName]

The following table describes infacmd ipc genreusereportfrompc command options and arguments:
Option
Argument
Description
-RepositoryName
-r
Pc_Repository_Name
Required. The PowerCenter repository name.
-HostName
-h
Pc_Domain_HostName
Required. The host name of the PowerCenter repository.
-PortNumber
-o
Pc_Domain_PortNumber
Required. The port number of the gateway node.
-UserName
-n
Domain_UserName
Optional. User name of the PowerCenter domain. If you do not enter a user name, the command uses the value in the INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN_USER environment variable.
Password
-x
Domain_Password
Optional. Password of the PowerCenter domain. If you do not enter a user name, the command uses the value in the INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN_PASSWORD environment variable.
-SecurityDomain
-s
Pc_Repository_Security_domain
Required if you use LDAP authentication. Name of the security domain that the user belongs to. If you do not enter a security domain, the command uses the value in the INFA_DEFAULT_SECURITY_DOMAIN environment variable.
You can use Native, LDAP, or SSO as the value.
The default value is Native.
-folderNames
-f
Pc_Folder_Names
Required. PowerCenter folders that contain the objects to be reused. The folder names can contain expressions. The folder names can contain * as expressions.
If you use the Linux environment, you cannot use $ in the folder name.
-SrcRelease
-srel
Pc_Release_version
Required. The release associated with the PowerCenter repository.
Enter the version in the following format: 
10.x.x
For example, enter a version in the following format: 
10.2.0
-targetRelease
-trel
Target_Release_version
Optional. The release associated with the Model repository. If you do not enter a version, the command uses the product version. You can enter versions from 10.0.0 and above.
Enter the version in the following format: 
10.x.x

-targetDir
-td
Target_Directory
Required. Location of the target directory on the machine on which the infacmd client and server runs. You must have the read, write, and execute permissions on the target directory folder.
For example, enter the infacmd client location in the following format: 
installed_location_of_client\clients\DeveloperClient\infacmd
For example, enter the infacmd server location in the following format: 
installed_location_of_server\isp\bin
On a Linux machine, you cannot use $ in the target directory name.

-LogFile
-lf
Log_file_Name
Optional. Name of the generated log file. If you do not enter a name, the command prints the logs on the console. Uses the value of file_path/file_name.
If you enter a file name, the log file with the same name appears in the infacmd folder.
If you enter a directory path that is not valid, the log file with the path name appears in the infacmd folder. For example, if you enter x as the directory path, the log file named x appears in the infacmd folder.
-Font
Font_to_use_for_PDF
Optional. The location for the font file to have Unicode characters in the report.
-ExecutionEnvironment
-execMode
Execution_Environment

-BlockSize
Block_Size
Optional. The number of mappings that you want to run the infacmd ipc genReuseReportFromPC command against. If you do not enter a value, the report runs and converts all the mappings within each folder at a time. When the memory required to run the command is unavailable, use the ‑BlockSize option to control the number of mappings instead of running the command on all the mappings in the repository.
