Installed Directories

Installed Directories

After you install PowerExchange CDC Publisher, the following directories and subdirectories exist:
pwxcdcpub_root_installation_directory
bin instanceA checkpoint config logs overflow reports libs samples
The following table describes these directories:
Directory
Description
pwxcdcpub_root_installation_directory
The product root installation directory that is created when you unzip or extract the compressed installation file for your operating system. The installation provides a version-specific root installation directory name. You can optionally change it to another unique name.
bin
Contains the script files for running the PowerExchange CDC Publisher utilities: PwxCDCAdmin, PwxCDCInfo, and PwxCDCPublisher.
instanceA
Contains the checkpoint, config, logs, overflow, and reports subdirectories for the default instance of PowerExchange CDC Publisher. You can create additional instance directories under other names such as instanceB or MyInstance, each with their own checkpoint, config, logs, overflow, and reports subdirectories.
checkpoint
Contains the checkpoint files that record the sequence number of the last change operation that was successfully sent to the target messaging system. These files are used to restart apply processing from the last change operation processed, thereby avoiding missing or duplicate changes on the target.
config
Contains the customized PowerExchange CDC Publisher configuration files that the PowerExchange CDC Publisher utilities use. Also contains the Log4j logging configuration file, PwxCDCPubLog4j.xml file, that configures the logging of PowerExchange CDC Publisher messages. You must copy the configuration files from the samples directory to this config directory to customize and use the files.
logs
Contains the active and archived log files with the PowerExchange CDC Publisher message output. The log files also contain PowerExchange error messages and optionally some PowerExchange informational messages.
overflow
Contains PowerExchange CDC Publisher cache files in temporary storage.
reports
Contains output from PwxCDCAdmin Report command. This command reports the Avro schemas that have been generated for source tables. These schemas can be used by consumer applications.
libs
Contains the PowerExchange CDC Publisher shared libraries that include the .jar files and the .dll or .so files.
samples
Contains the sample PowerExchange CDC Publisher configuration files.
Informatica recommends that you retain the sample files "as is" so that they are available for re-use. Copy the files to the config subdirectory of the instance you intend to configure and then customize the file copies there.
