When you run the installer, you can choose to create a domain. The domain consists of core

CDI-PC

services to support the domain. The domain is a collection of nodes that represent the machines on which the application services run. You create a domain the first time you run the installer. If you install on a single machine, you create the domain and gateway node on the machine. If you install on multiple machines, you create an Informatica domain and a gateway node during the first installation. During the installation on the additional machines, you create gateway or worker nodes that you join to the domain.

When the installer creates a domain, it installs files for services. If you run the installer in console mode, you can create the services during the installation process, or you can manually create them after installation. To create the services during installation, log in to

Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

and register the domain on the

CDI-PC

Home page. You can then continue to create the services.

If you run the installer in silent mode, you can't create the services during installation. After the installation succeeds, register the domain and then log in to Informatica Administrator to create the services.
