Data Integration Service Options

Data Integration Service Options

Use the Data Integration Service options with the infacmd dis UpdateServiceOptions command.
Enter Data Integration Service options in the following format:
... -o option_type.option_name=value
To enter multiple options, separate them with a space. To enter a value that contains a space or other non-alphanumeric character, enclose the value in quotation marks.
The following table describes Data Integration Service options:
Option
Description
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.ColumnsPerMapping
Limits the number of columns that can be profiled in a single mapping due to save memory and disk space. Default is 5. If you profile a source with over 100 million rows decrease the value to as low as 1.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.ExecutionPoolSize
Maximum number of threads to run mappings.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MaxMemPerRequest
Maximum amount of memory, in bytes, that the Data Integration Service can allocate for each mapping run for a single profile request.
Default is 536,870,912.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MaxNumericPrecision
Maximum number of digits for a numeric value.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MaxParallelColumnBatches
Number of threads that can run mappings at the same time. Default is 1.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MaxStringLength
Maximum length of a string that the profiling service can process.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MaxValueFrequencyPairs
Maximum number of value/frequency pairs to store in the profiling warehouse. Default is 16,000.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.MinPatternFrequency
Minimum number of patterns to display for a profile.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.ReservedThreads
Number of threads of the Maximum Execution Pool Size that are for priority requests. Default is 1.
AdvancedProfilingServiceOptions.ValueFrequencyMemSize
Amount of memory to allow for value-frequency pairs. Default is 64 megabytes.
DataObjectCacheOptions.CacheConnection
The database connection name for the database that stores the data object cache. Enter a valid connection object name.
DataObjectCacheOptions.CacheRemovalTime
The number of milliseconds the Data Integration Service waits before cleaning up cache storage after a refresh. Default is 3,600,000.
DeploymentOptions.DefaultDeploymentMode
Determines whether to enable and start each application after you deploy it to a Data Integration Service.
Enter one of the following options:
  • EnableandStart. Enable the application and start the application.
  • EnableOnly. Enable the application but do not start the application.
  • Disable. Do not enable the application.
DataObjectCacheOptions.EnableNestedLDOCache
Indicates that the Data Integration Service can use cache data for a logical data object used as a source or a lookup in another logical data object during a cache refresh. If false, the Data Integration Service accesses the source resources even if you enabled caching for the logical data object used as a source or a lookup.
For example, logical data object LDO3 joins data from logical data objects LDO1 and LDO2. A developer creates a mapping that uses LDO3 as the input and includes the mapping in an application. You enable caching for LDO1, LDO2, and LDO3. If you enable nested logical data object caching, the Data Integration Service uses cache data for LDO1 and LDO2 when it refreshes the cache table for LDO3. If you do not enable nested logical data object caching, the Data Integration Service accesses the source resources for LDO1 and LDO2 when it refreshes the cache table for LDO3.
Default is false.
DataObjectCacheOptions.MaxConcurrentRefreshRequests
Maximum number of cache refreshes that can occur at the same time.
ExecutionContextOptions.Spark.MSPEnableUnassignedData
If true, enables midstream parsing functionality that captures unparsed data in the source string and saves it in an
UnassignedData
array as an
unidentifiedDataItem
.
By default, if the parser encounters a data field that it cannot parse, the data is ignored. But the source string complex data schema can change. For example, a software update on the server might change the JSON or XML. This option allows you to capture the data for analysis.
Default is false.
ExecutionOptions.BigDataJobRecovery
If true, enables data engineering job recovery and distributed queueing for deployed jobs configured to run on the Spark engine.
Default is false.
ExecutionOptions.CacheDirectory
Directory for index and data cache files for transformations. Default is
<home directory>/cache
.
Enter a list of directories separated by semicolons to increase performance during cache partitioning for Aggregator, Joiner, or Rank transformations.
You cannot use the following characters in the directory path:
* ? < > " | ,

ExecutionOptions.MaxMappingParallelism
Maximum number of parallel threads that process a single mapping pipeline stage.
When you set the value greater than one, the Data Integration Service enables partitioning for mappings and for mappings converted from profiles. The service dynamically scales the number of partitions for a mapping pipeline at run time. Increase the value based on the number of CPUs available on the nodes where mappings run.
In the Developer tool, developers can change the maximum parallelism value for each mapping. When maximum parallelism is set for both the Data Integration Service and the mapping, the Data Integration Service uses the minimum value when it runs the mapping.
Default is 1. Maximum is 64.
ExecutionOptions.MaxMemorySize
Maximum amount of memory, in bytes, that the Data Integration Service can allocate for running all requests concurrently when the service runs jobs in the Data Integration Service process. When the Data Integration Service runs jobs in separate local or remote processes, the service ignores this value. If you do not want to limit the amount of memory the Data Integration Service can allocate, set this property to 0.
If the value is greater than 0, the Data Integration Service uses the property to calculate the maximum total memory allowed for running all requests concurrently. The Data Integration Service calculates the maximum total memory as follows:
Maximum Memory Size + Maximum Heap Size + memory required for loading program components
Default is 0.
If you run profiles or data quality mappings, set this property to 0.
ExecutionOptions.MaxNativeBatchExecutionPoolSize
Maximum number of deployed jobs that can run concurrently in the native environment. The Data Integration Service moves native mapping jobs from the queue to the native job pool when enough resources are available. Default is 10.
ExecutionOptions.MaxOnDemandExecutionPoolSize
Maximum number of on-demand jobs that can run concurrently. Jobs include data previews, profiling jobs, REST and SQL queries, web service requests, and mappings run from the Developer tool. All jobs that the Data Integration Service receives contribute to the on-demand pool size. The Data Integration Service immediately runs on-demand jobs if enough resources are available. Otherwise, the Data Integration Service rejects the job. Default is 10.
ExecutionOptions.OutOfProcessExecution
Runs jobs in the Data Integration Service process, in separate DTM processes on the local node, or in separate DTM processes on remote nodes. Configure the property based on whether the Data Integration Service runs on a single node or a grid and based on the types of jobs that the service runs.
Enter one of the following options:
  • IN_PROCESS. Runs jobs in the Data Integration Service process. Configure when you run SQL data service and web service jobs on a single node or on a grid where each node has both the service and compute roles.
  • OUT_OF_PROCESS. Runs jobs in separate DTM processes on the local node. Configure when you run mapping, profile, and workflow jobs on a single node or on a grid where each node has both the service and compute roles.
  • OUT_OF_PROCESS_REMOTE. Runs jobs in separate DTM processes on remote nodes. Configure when you run mapping, profile, and workflow jobs on a grid where nodes can have a different combination of roles. If you configure this option when the Data Integration Service runs on a single node, then the service runs jobs in separate local processes.
Default is OUT_OF_PROCESS.
ExecutionOptions.RejectFilesDirectory
Directory for reject files. Reject files contain rows that were rejected when running a mapping. Default is
<home directory>/reject
.
You cannot use the following characters in the directory path:
* ? < > " | ,
ExecutionOptions.SourceDirectory
Directory for source flat files used in a mapping. Default is
<home directory>/source
.
If the Data Integration Service runs on a grid, you can use a shared directory to create one directory for source files. If you configure a different directory for each node with the compute role, ensure that the source files are consistent among all source directories.
You cannot use the following characters in the directory path:
* ? < > " | ,
ExecutionOptions.TargetDirectory
Default directory for target flat files used in a mapping. Default is
<home directory>/target
.
Enter a list of directories separated by semicolons to increase performance when multiple partitions write to the flat file target.
If the Data Integration Service runs on a grid, you can use a shared directory to create one directory for target files. If you configure a different directory for each node with the compute role, ensure that the target files are consistent among all target directories.
You cannot use the following characters in the directory path:
* ? < > " | ,
ExecutionOptions.TemporaryDirectories
Directory for temporary files created when jobs are run. Default is
<home directory>/disTemp
.
Enter a list of directories separated by semicolons to optimize performance during profile operations and during cache partitioning for Sorter transformations.
You cannot use the following characters in the directory path:
* ? < > " | , [ ]
HttpConfigurationOptions.AllowedHostNames
List of constants or Java regular expression patterns compared to the host name of the requesting machine. The host names are case sensitive. Use a space to separate multiple constants or expressions.
If you configure this property, the Data Integration Service accepts requests from host names that match the allowed host name pattern. If you do not configure this property, the Data Integration Service uses the Denied Host Names property to determine which clients can send requests.
HttpConfigurationOptions.AllowedIPAddresses
List of constants or Java regular expression patterns compared to the IP address of the requesting machine. Use a space to separate multiple constants or expressions.
If you configure this property, the Data Integration Service accepts requests from IP addresses that match the allowed address pattern. If you do not configure this property, the Data Integration Service uses the Denied IP Addresses property to determine which clients can send requests.
HttpConfigurationOptions.DeniedHostNames
List of constants or Java regular expression patterns compared to the host name of the requesting machine. The host names are case sensitive. Use a space to separate multiple constants or expressions.
If you configure this property, the Data Integration Service accepts requests from host names that do not match the denied host name pattern. If you do not configure this property, the Data Integration Service uses the Allowed Host Names property to determine which clients can send requests.
HttpConfigurationOptions.DeniedIPAddresses
List of constants or Java regular expression patterns compared to the IP address of the requesting machine. Use a space to separate multiple constants or expressions.
If you configure this property, the Data Integration Service accepts requests from IP addresses that do not match the denied IP address pattern. If you do not configure this property, the Data Integration Service uses the Allowed IP Addresses property to determine which clients can send requests.
HttpConfigurationOptions.HTTPProtocolType
Security protocol that the Data Integration Service uses. Enter one of the following values:
  • HTTP. Requests to the service must use an HTTP URL.
  • HTTPS. Requests to the service must use an HTTPS URL.
  • Both. Requests to the service can use either an HTTP or an HTTPS URL.
When you set the HTTP protocol type to HTTPS or Both, you enable Transport Layer Security (TLS) for the service.
You can also enable TLS for each web service deployed to an application. When you enable HTTPS for the Data Integration Service and enable TLS for the web service, the web service uses an HTTPS URL. When you enable HTTPS for the Data Integration Service and do not enable TLS for the web service, the web service can use an HTTP URL or an HTTPS URL. If you enable TLS for a web service and do not enable HTTPS for the Data Integration Service, the web service does not start.
Default is HTTP.
