Siebel Application Connection for EIM Read and Load Transformations

Siebel Application Connection for EIM Read and Load Transformations

The Siebel EIM Read and Load transformations use the Siebel Database Connection application connection to connect to the Siebel database. When you configure an application connection for the Siebel EIM Read or Load transformation, you must specify the connection attributes for the Siebel database.
The following table describes the Siebel EIM Read or Load transformations:
Connection Parameter
Description
User Name
User name to connect to Siebel.
Password
Password for the user name.
Connect String
ODBC data source name.
Use Informatica certified ODBC drivers for ODBC data source connection.
Connection Retry Period
Number of seconds the PowerCenter Integration Service attempts to reconnect to the database if the connection fails. If the PowerCenter Integration Service fails to connect to the database in the retry period, the session fails. If you set the connection retry period to 0, the PowerCenter Integration Service does not attempt to reconnect to the database if the connection fails. Default is 0.
Table Name Prefix
If required, configure the table name prefix to establish connection with the database. Default is Blank.
Enter the name of the Siebel database schema as the table name prefix when Oracle is the target database.
