When you create a PowerCenter Repository Service, you can create the associated PowerCenter repository on a database secured with the SSL protocol.
The PowerCenter Repository Service connects to the PowerCenter repository database through native connectivity.
When you create a PowerCenter repository on a secure database, verify that the database client files contain the secure connection information for the database. For example, if you create a PowerCenter repository on a secure Oracle database, configure the Oracle database tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora client files with the secure connection information.
