Before you run the installer to migrate the Informatica domain to a
CDI-PC domain
, perform the prerequisite tasks. You can migrate the domain on the same machine or to a different machine. The prerequisite tasks differ based on how you choose to migrate the domain.
A
CDI-PC domain
uses TLS with host name verification. You can use existing custom TLS certificates if they contain SAN entries for host details. If the custom TLS certificates don't contain SAN entries, generate custom TLS certificates before you migrate the domain. You can't use default certificates included with the Informatica domain.
After you migrate, you can't convert a
CDI-PC domain
to non TLS or change the certificates to the default certificates that you used with the Informatica domain.
Before you migrate the Informatica domain, truncate the PowerCenter workflow and sessions logs. Use the
pmrep TruncateLog
command or the Repository Manager to remove workflow and session logs from the repository. The
TruncateLog
command increases performance by reducing the time that it takes the PowerCenter repository to access and write to the logs. Run the
pmrep UpdateStatistics
command immediately before and after you truncate workflow and session logs.
Shut down the domain and back up the domain configuration metadata before you migrate.
Although the installer backs up the domain configuration during migration, it doesn't back up the domain if you choose to migrate to a different host or update domain configuration details.
If the Informatica domain has multiple nodes, migrate a gateway node first and then migrate other nodes.
You can't migrate an Informatica domain with the following specifications:
Application services other than the following services:
PowerCenter Repository Service
PowerCenter Integration Service
Data Integration Service
Model Repository Service
monitoring Model Repository Service
Web Services Hub Service
PowerCenter SAP BW Service
PowerExchange Listener Service
PowerExchange Logger Service
When you create a domain, join a domain, migrate a domain, or update a domain, make sure that you do not configure the following directories under
