Implementation Scenario

Implementation Scenario

A data archive retirement project uses PowerExchange ODBC to access IMS and VSAM data sources on z/OS. This implementation includes the following systems and components:
  • A z/OS system with the IMS and VSAM data sources.
    On this system, you will install PowerExchange 9.1.0 HotFix 4 or later.
  • A Linux, UNIX, or Windows system that has the following type of storage and software:
    • Informatica Data Archive engine 5.3.7 or later
    • File Archive Server (FAS)
    • NFS or local storage for the encapsulated BCP files
    On this system, you will install PowerExchange 9.1.0 HotFix 4 or later. You will also copy the DataDirect Driver Manager and define PowerExchange ODBC data sources.
  • Database repository for ILM, PowerCenter, and DVO schema.
  • Validation server with the PowerCenter Domain, PowerCenter Client, FAS ODBC, and DVO installed.
    On this system, you will install PowerExchange and define PowerExchange ODBC data sources.
  • A Microsoft Windows system.
    On this system, you will install PowerExchange 9.1.0 HotFix 4 or later and run the PowerExchange Navigator.
The following figure illustrates the implementation. In this figure, PWX represents PowerExchange, PC represents PowerCenter, and DD represents DataDirect.
