Enter or review general parameters.
LE Run-time Library
The data set name of the LE run-time library.
Default is SYS1.SCEERUN.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <sceerunlib> variable in the INSTPARM file.
Delete Install Members
Select this check box to run the XIZZZ999 job. This job deletes members that were moved by the XIZZZ998 job from the RUNLIB library to other libraries.
To retain these members in the RUNLIB library, ensure that this check box is cleared. This check box is cleared by default.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <delinst> variable in the INSTPARM file.
Auto Submit On
Select this check box to have PowerExchange installation jobs submitted automatically after you submit the initial job.
If you select this check box, also specify TYPRUN=HOLD in the JOB card that you set up in Step 4. Edit the JOBCARD Member in the RUNLIB Library. All of the jobs should end with a return code less than 4.
If you want to manually submit the installation jobs, clear this check box. Informatica recommends that you manually submit the installation jobs so that you can verify that the jobs run in the correct order on the correct system.
By default, this check box is cleared.
If you are installing PowerExchange for Db2 or PowerExchange CDC, do not select this check box. During PowerExchange installation, you must run a job to bind Db2 plans. Without the appropriate Db2 authority, the BIND job fails. The installation of PowerExchange CDC components requires manual input between the run of various installation jobs.
Selecting the
JES3 Install
check box causes the
Auto Submit On
check box to be cleared and become unavailable.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <qikinst> variable in the INSTPARM file.
Light Install
Select this check box to install a subset of the PowerExchange libraries.
When this check box is selected, the following libraries are not installed or are installed only if you select certain options:
Library
Description
Notes
CRG.LOAD
Load library that contains load modules for IMS synchronous CDC
Installed only if you select IMS synchronous CDC
DATAXMIT
Demonstration data
Not installed
DBRM
Temporary load library that contains Db2 DBRM modules for Db2 CDC
Installed only if you select Db2 CDC
DBRMLIB
PDS that contains PowerExchange Db2 DBRMs for bulk and CDC
Installed only if you select Db2
By default, this check box is cleared.
Selecting the
JES3 Install
check box causes the
Light Install
check box to be cleared and become unavailable.
This setting corresponds to the <liteinstall> variable in the INSTPARM file. Also sets values for the <exclcrgl>, <excldataxmit>, excldb2>, exclcrglx>, <excldataxmitx>, <excldb2x>, <adassor>, <adawork>, and <adadatasto> variables.
Change Listener Port
If you want the PowerExchange Listener to listen on a port other than the default port, select this check box and then enter a port number.
By default, this check box is cleared and the port number 2480 is used.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This port number corresponds to the <port> variable in the INSTPARM file.
Use Tape / GDG Netport
If you plan to use netport jobs to process tapes or generation data sets (GDGs), select this check box and then enter the port number on which these netport jobs will listen. Netport jobs are often used in conjunction with long-running tasks such as tape storage or IMS tasks.
By default, this check box is selected and the port number 32480 is used.
To specify more than one netport job, manually edit the DBMOVER configuration member of the RUNLIB library.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This port number corresponds to the <netport> variable in the INSTPARM file.
Use CDC Netport
If you plan to use netport jobs for CDC sources, select this check box and then enter the port number on which these CDC netport jobs will listen. Netport jobs are often used in conjunction with long-running tasks such as tape storage or IMS tasks.
By default, this check box is selected and the port number 22480 is used.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This port number corresponds to the <cdcport> variable in the INSTPARM file.
ICU
Select this check box to generate International Components for Unicode (ICU) custom converters.
By default, this check box is cleared and the ICU custom converters are not generated.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <uss> variable in the INSTPARM file.
USS directory where tar file programs are unpacked
The USS directory to which the ICU installation tar files are copied and unpacked. You must select the
ICU
check box for this field to be available.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <ussunpackdir> variable in the INSTPARM file.
USS directory where ICU CNV files are placed (DTLCFG ICUDATADIR parameter)
The USS directory where the ICU CNV files are placed. You must select the
ICU
check box for this field to be available.
If you specify this directory, also define the ICUDATADIR statement in the PowerExchange DBMOVER configuration file.
This field is read only for an upgrade or a hotfix install.
This setting corresponds to the <ussicudatadir> variable in the INSTPARM file.
JES3 Install
Select this check box to customize the JCL that installs PowerExchange in a JES3 environment. When this check box is selected, the
Auto Submit On
and
Light Install
options are unavailable.
By default, this check box is cleared.
This setting corresponds to the <jes3inst> variable in the INSTPARM file. A value of 0 corresponds to not selected, and a value of 1 corresponds to selected.

Enables you to define advanced parameters.
To change an advanced parameter value, complete the following steps:
  1. In the
    Value
    column, click the cell for the parameter.
    To sort parameters, click a column header. For example, to sort by parameter name, click the
    Parameter Name
    header.
  2. Enter the parameter value, and click
    OK
    .
If you define advanced parameters, you cannot restore these parameters to default values by using the
Restore Defaults
button.
Restore Defaults
Restores default values.
