Domain and Node Configuration

After you configure the encryption key, you can configure the domain and node.

Enter the information for the domain and the node that you want to create.

The following table describes the properties that you set for the domain and gateway node.

Property	Description
Domain name	Name of the Informatica domain to create. The default domain name is Domain_<MachineName>. The name must not exceed 128 characters and must be 7-bit ASCII only. The name cannot contain a space or any of the following characters: ` % * + ; " ? , < > \ /
Node name	Name of the node to create.
Node host name	Host name or IP address of the machine on which to create the node. If the machine has a single network name, use the default host name. If the a machine has multiple network names, you can modify the default host name to use an alternate network name. The node host name cannot contain the underscore (_) character. Do not use localhost. The host name must explicitly identify the machine.
Node port number	Port number for the node. The default port number for the node is 6005. If the port number is not available on the machine, the installer displays the next available port number.
Domain user name	User name for the domain administrator. You can use this user name to initially log in to Informatica Administrator. Use the following guidelines: The name is not case sensitive and cannot exceed 128 characters. The name cannot include a tab, newline character, or the following special characters: % * + / ? ; < > The name can include an ASCII space character except for the first and last character. Other space characters are not allowed.

Select whether you want to enable password complexity to secure sensitive data in the domain.

The following table describes the password complexity:

Property	Description
Password complexity	Select whether you want to enable password complexity. 1 - Yes 2 - No If you select Yes, the password must meet the following requirements: It must be at least eight characters long and contain at least one alphabetic character, one numeric character, and one special character.
Configure password policy	Select whether you want to configure a password policy. 1 - Yes 2 - No If you select Yes, you can configure password complexity rules. If you select No, the default Informatica password policy rules apply.
Number of special characters	The minimum number of special characters required in a password. You can use the following special characters: [ ! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ ] ^ _ ` { \| } ~ ] You can enter a value between 0 and 128. Default is 1.
Number of alphabetic characters	The minimum number of alphabetic characters required in a password. You can enter a value between 0 and 128. Default is 1.
Number of numeric characters	The minimum number of numeric characters required in a password. You can enter a value between 0 and 128. Default is 1.
Minimum password length	The minimum number of characters required in a password. You can enter a value between 1 and 128. Default is 8.
Number of previous passwords to store	The number of consecutive previous passwords that can't be reused. You can enter a value between 0 and 12. Default is 0.
Password expiration in days	The duration of the validity of a password. If you don't want passwords to expire, set the value to 0. Default is 0.
Domain password	Password for the domain administrator. If you don't enable password complexity, the password must be between 2 and 16 characters. If you enable password complexity, the password must be at least eight characters long and contain at least one alphabetic character, one numeric character, and one special character. If you configure a password policy, the password must meet the complexity rules that you set. Not available if you configure the Informatica domain to run on a network with Kerberos authentication.
Confirm password	Enter the password again to confirm. Not available if you configure the Informatica domain to run on a network with Kerberos authentication.

Select whether to display the default ports for the domain and node components assigned by the installer.

The following table describes the advanced port configuration page:

Prompt	Description
Display advanced port configuration page	Select whether to display the port numbers for the domain and node components assigned by the installer: 1 - No 2 - Yes If you select Yes, the installer displays the default port numbers assigned to the domain components. You can specify the port numbers to use for the domain and node components. You can also specify a range of port numbers to use for the service process that will run on the node. You can use the default port numbers or specify new port numbers. Verify that the port numbers you enter are not used by other applications.

Prompt

Description

Display advanced port configuration page

Select whether to display the port numbers for the domain and node components assigned by the installer:

1 - No

2 - Yes

If you select Yes, the installer displays the default port numbers assigned to the domain components. You can specify the port numbers to use for the domain and node components. You can also specify a range of port numbers to use for the service process that will run on the node. You can use the default port numbers or specify new port numbers. Verify that the port numbers you enter are not used by other applications.

If you display the port configuration page, enter new port numbers at the prompt or press Enter to use the default port numbers.

The following table describes the ports that you can set:

Port	Description
Service Manager port	Port number used by the Service Manager on the node. The Service Manager listens for incoming connection requests on this port. Client applications use this port to communicate with the services in the domain. The Informatica command line programs use this port to communicate to the domain. This is also the port for the SQL data service JDBC/ODBC driver. Default is 6006.
Service Manager Shutdown port	Port number that controls server shutdown for the domain Service Manager. The Service Manager listens for shutdown commands on this port. Default is 6007.
Informatica Administrator port	Port number used by Informatica Administrator. Default is 6008.
Informatica Administrator HTTPS port	No default port. Enter the required port number when you create the service. Setting this port to 0 disables an HTTPS connection to the Administrator tool.
Informatica Administrator shutdown port	Port number that controls server shutdown for Informatica Administrator. Informatica Administrator listens for shutdown commands on this port. Default is 6009.
Minimum port number	Lowest port number in the range of dynamic port numbers that can be assigned to the application service processes that run on this node. Default is 6014.
Maximum port number	Highest port number in the range of dynamic port numbers that can be assigned to the application service processes that run on this node. Default is 6114.

Select if you want to configure the services and connection.

If you select Yes, you can configure the Model Repository Service, Data Integration Service, Content Management Service, PowerCenter Repository Service, and PowerCenter Integration Service, as well as the profiling warehouse connection and the connections associated with the cluster configuration.

If you select No, you can configure the application services from the Administrator tool.

If you choose to configure the services and connections, the

Configure Informatica application services

section appears. If you choose not to configure the services and connections, the

Post-Installation Summary

section indicates whether the installation completed successfully. The summary also shows the status of the installed components and their configuration.
