Post-Installation and Post-Upgrade Steps for the Reference Data Database

Post-Installation and Post-Upgrade Steps for the Reference Data Database

To run mappings that use reference tables on the Spark engine, perform the following steps after you install or upgrade to 10.4.1:
  1. Download the files that support JDBC connections for the reference data database.
  2. Configure custom properties on the Data Integration Service.
You do not need to perform the steps for the reference data database if either of the following conditions are true:
  • You upgrade from an Informatica version in which the steps are already complete.
  • You apply the hotfix to an Informatica version in which the steps are already complete.
The release notes for version 10.2.2 Service Pack 1, 10.2.2 HotFix 1, and 10.4.0 include the steps.
To find the reference data database that the Data Integration Service uses, examine the Content Management Service that the domain associates with the Data Integration Service. The Content Management Service identifies the reference data database connection. (BDM-17909)

Download the JDBC .JAR Files

Download the files that support JDBC connections on the reference data database. Copy the files to the Informatica services machine.
  1. Obtain the JDBC .jar files that correspond to the reference data database that you use. You can download the files from the database vendor web site.
  2. Copy the file that you download to the following location:<INFA_HOME>/externaljdbcjars

Configure Custom Properties on the Data Integration Service

Configure the custom properties in the Data Integration Service. Add the custom property that relates to the database type of the reference data database.
  1. Open the Administrator tool and select the Data Integration Service in the Domain Navigator.
  2. Find the Custom Properties option on the
    Properties
     tab.
  3. Open the
    Edit Custom Properties
     dialog box.
  4. Create a custom property for the reference data database.
    The following table describes the custom properties that you can set for each database type:
    Database Type
    Property Name
    Property Value
    IBM DB2
    ExecutionContextOptions.SparkRefTableHadoopConnectorArgs
    --driver com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver --connect jdbc:db2://[db_hostname]:[port]/[database_name]
    Microsoft SQL Server
    ExecutionContextOptions.SparkRefTableHadoopConnectorArgs
    --connect jdbc:sqlserver://[db_hostname];databaseName=[database_name]
    Oracle
    ExecutionContextOptions.SparkRefTableHadoopConnectorArgs
    --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:@[db_hostname]:[port]:[sid]
  5. Recycle the Data Integration Service.
