Relaxed Code Page Validation

Relaxed Code Page Validation

Your environment may require you to process data from different sources using character sets from different languages. For example, you may need to process data from English and Japanese sources using the same
CDI-PC repository
, or you may want to extract source data encoded in a Unicode encoding such as UTF-8. You can configure the
CDI-PC Integration Service
for relaxed code page validation. Relaxed code page validation enables you to process data using sources and targets with incompatible code pages.
Although relaxed code page validation removes source and target code page restrictions, it still enforces code page compatibility between the
CDI-PC Integration Service
and
CDI-PC repository
.
Relaxed code page validation does not safeguard against possible data inconsistencies when you move data between incompatible code pages. You must verify that the characters the
CDI-PC Integration Service
reads from the source are included in the target code page.
Informatica removes the following restrictions when you relax code page validation:
  • Source and target code pages. You can use any code page supported by Informatica for your source and target data.
  • Session sort order. You can use any sort order supported by Informatica when you configure a session.
When you run a session with relaxed code page validation, the
CDI-PC Integration Service
writes the following message to the session log:
TM_6185 WARNING! Data code page validation is disabled in this session.
When you relax code page validation, the
CDI-PC Integration Service
writes descriptions of the database connection code pages to the session log.
The following text shows sample code page messages in the session log:
TM_6187 Repository code page: [MS Windows Latin 1 (ANSI), superset of Latin 1] WRT_8222 Target file [$PMTargetFileDir\passthru.out] code page: [MS Windows Traditional Chinese, superset of Big 5] WRT_8221 Target database connection [Japanese Oracle] code page: [MS Windows Japanese, superset of Shift-JIS] TM_6189 Source database connection [Japanese Oracle] code page: [MS Windows Japanese, superset of Shift-JIS] CMN_1716 Lookup [LKP_sjis_lookup] uses database connection [Japanese Oracle] in code page [MS Windows Japanese, superset of Shift-JIS] CMN_1717 Stored procedure [J_SP_INCREMENT] uses database connection [Japanese Oracle] in code page [MS Windows Japanese, superset of Shift-JIS]
If the
CDI-PC Integration Service
cannot correctly convert data, it writes an error message to the session log.
