Creating a Connection

You can create a source or target connection in Test Data Manager.

Before you can test a Teradata or a Teradata Parallel Transporter connection, you must add the Teradata JDBC JAR files

tdgssconfig.jar

and

terajdbc4.jar

to the following location:

<Informatica installation directory>\TDM\lib\thirdparty

. Restart the Test Data Manager Service after you add the files.

If you reuse the name of a connection previously created and deleted in Test Data Manager, a workflow that you use the connection in might fail. The workflow might fail because a connection object with the same name and different properties exists in the domain repository.

In the

Administrator | Connections

view, select

New Connection

from the

Actions

menu.

A tab opens to display the new connection properties.

Select the connection type and define the connection name, description, and user information.

The connection name must begin with an alphabetic character. If you enter a connection name that begins with a numeric character, a workflow that includes the connection might fail.

Optional. Click

Change Owner

and select a different user as the connection owner.

Click

Enter the connection properties.

Click

Test Connection

to test the connection.

Click

Finish

to save the connection.

The connection is visible in the

Administrator | Connections

view.

Optional. Select the connection in the

Administrator | Connections

view, and click

Actions

Test Connection

to validate the connection.
