Creating or Joining a Domain

Creating or Joining a Domain

The installer completes different tasks depending on whether you create a domain or join a domain:
  • Creating a domain.
    The installer runs the infasetup DefineDomain command to create the domain and the gateway node for the domain on the current machine based on the information you enter in the Configure Domain window.
  • Joining a domain.
    The installer runs the infasetup DefineWorkerNode command to create a node on the current machine, and runs the infacmd AddDomainNode command to add the node to the domain. The installer uses the information you enter in the Configure Domain window to run the commands.
The infasetup and infacmd commands fail if the gateway node is unavailable. If the gateway node is unavailable, you cannot log in to Informatica Administrator.
For example, the DefineDomain command fails if you click Test Connection and the connection test passes but the database becomes unavailable before you click Next. The DefineDomain command can also fail if the host name or IP address does not belong to the current machine. Verify that the database for the domain configuration is available and that the host name is correct and try again.
If the AddDomainNode command fails, verify that the Informatica service is running on the gateway node and try again.
