Data Validation Option Repository Properties

Data Validation Option Repository Properties

The Data Validation Option repository properties determine how the Data Validation Client connects to the Data Validation Option repository.
Configure the following repository properties:
User
Unique name for the Data Validation Option user. Use alphanumeric characters only. If you enabled Informatica authentication and the Data Validation Option user name does not match the associated PowerCenter user name, run the DVOCmd LinkDVOUsersToInformatica command to link the Data Validation Option user to the associated PowerCenter user.
Database Type
Type of database for the Data Validation Option repository.
Database Driver
The driver of the database type that you selected.
Database URL
The URL of the database type that you selected. Specify the values for the URL parameters, such as database host name, database name, and port number. The following examples show the URL formats for different databases:
IBM DB2
Use the following URL format:
jdbc:informatica:db2://<hostname>:<port>;DatabaseName=<database_name>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:db2://127.0.0.1:50000;DatabaseName=sampleDatabase
Use the following URL format if you have enabled SSL on the DB2 database server:
jdbc:informatica:db2:// <hostname>:<port>;databaseName=<database_name>;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= <hostname_in_certificate>;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=<full_path_to_truststore_file>;TrustStorePassword=<truststorepassword>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:db2:// myhost.myorg.com:60012;databaseName=mydb;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= myhost.myorg.com;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=\\myhost\db2\certs_cacerts;TrustStorePassword=mypwd
Oracle
The URL format depends on whether or not Oracle Advanced Security (ASO) is enabled on the Oracle server.
ASO is not enabled
Use the following URL format:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://<hostname>:<port>;ServiceName=<service_name>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://127.0.0.1:1521;ServiceName=sampleService
Use the following URL format if you enabled SSL on the Oracle database server:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://<hostname>:<port>;ServiceName=<service_name>;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= <hostname_in_certificate>;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=<full_path_to_truststore_file>;TrustStorePassword=<truststorepassword>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://myhost.myorg.com:60012;ServiceName=<service_name>;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= myhost.myorg.com;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=\\myhost\db2\certs_cacerts;TrustStorePassword=mypwd
ASO is enabled
jdbc:informatica:db2:// <hostname>:<port>;databaseName=<database_name>;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= <hostname_in_certificate>;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=<full_path_to_truststore_file>;TrustStorePassword=<truststorepassword>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:db2:// myhost.myorg.com:60012;databaseName=mydb;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= myhost.myorg.com;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=\\myhost\db2\certs_cacerts;TrustStorePassword=mypwd
Use the following URL format:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://<hostname>:<port>;ServiceName=<service_name>;EncryptionLevel=required;EncryptionTypes=<encryption_types>;DataIntegrityLevel=required;DataIntegrityTypes=<data_integrity_types>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:oracle://127.0.0.1:1521;ServiceName=sampleService;EncryptionLevel=required;EncryptionTypes=AES256;DataIntegrityLevel=required;DataIntegrityTypes=MD5
In this example, AES256 is one of the encryption types and MD5 is one of the data integrity types that DataDirect JDBC Driver for Oracle supports. Consult the Oracle administrator to verify the data encryption and data integrity settings of your Oracle server. To specify multiple encryption types and data integrity types, enter a comma-separated list of values.
Microsoft SQL Server
Use the following URL format:
jdbc:informatica:sqlserver://<hostname>:<port>;DatabaseName=<database_name>
For example, use the following URL:
jdbc:informatica:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;DatabaseName=sampleDatabase
Use the following URL format if you have enabled SSL on the SQL server:
jdbc:informatica:db2:// <hostname>:<port>;databaseName=<database_name>;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate= <hostname_in_certificate>;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=<full_path_to_truststore_file>;TrustStorePassword=<truststorepassword>
For example, use the following URL
jdbc:informatica:sqlserver:// myhost.myorg.com:1433;DatabaseName=AUTODB;EncryptionMethod=SSL;HostNameInCertificate=myhost.myorg.com;ValidateServerCertificate=true;TrustStore=\\myhost\SSL\SQL\mycert_truststore.jks;TrustStorePassword=mypwd
Database User
The database user name.
Database Password
The password of the database user.
